However, there are plenty of other, more creative ideas that might give a stylish and memorable look to your living room. At the same time, most of the following ideas are still simple an even if you lack DIY experience, you will still be able to make a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.furnitureinfashion.net\/coffee-tables\/\">coffee table\u00a0<\/a> from log all on your own. Here are some of the most impressive, totally doable ideas you might appreciate:<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"hidetext\" href=\"https:\/\/furnitureinfashion.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Untitled-design-28.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-12462\" src=\"https:\/\/furnitureinfashion.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Untitled-design-28-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Untitled design (28)\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" \/>design\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Solid logs<\/h3>\n<p>As it was already mentioned, going with a single solid log is one of the simplest ideas. Sure, you will have to process the piece, make sure that it is even, and apply a finish; but still this is one of the least time consuming suggestions on how to make coffee table from log. Perfect for rustic living rooms, a table like this will look very impressive in a chunky, low standing design.<\/p>\n<h3>Log base and glass top<\/h3>\n<p>To give your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.furnitureinfashion.net\/living-room-furniture\/\">living room\u00a0<\/a> an unusual and exquisite look, consider having a log base and a clear glass top. The base can be either made of solid, round log, or feature a more abstract, uneven design. The latter one is an astonishing idea for contemporary rooms, giving them an ultra modern, designer look that is truly one of a kind.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/736x\/eb\/b2\/58\/ebb258977e080012d5e6c2cc0b2a1bfd.jpg\" alt=\"unusual and exquisite look\" width=\"290\" height=\"174\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Logs as side decoration<\/h3>\n<p>Another unusual idea on how to make coffee table from log is to go with traditional genuine wood rectangular surface and use smaller logs as decoration on each side of your table surface. A possible alternative could be going with classic wooden surface and four medium sized logs as table legs.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/736x\/32\/8a\/60\/328a608d4ed739f050ad656f9f5f2404.jpg\" alt=\"classic wooden surface\" width=\"450\" height=\"388\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Plenty of smaller logs combined into one piece<\/h3>\n<p>Perhaps, one of the most impressive ideas (that, unfortunately, requires most time in comparison to other DIY tables) is to carefully combine plenty of smaller logs into one piece.\u00a0 Usually combined vertically, an arrangement like this cannot but catch the eye and leave a memorable impression on your guests.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 560px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a class=\"hidetext\" href=\"https:\/\/www.furnitureinfashion.net\/witham-wooden-coffee-table-rectangular-in-knotty-oak-and-rollers-p-26432.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.furnitureinfashion.net\/images\/58784_NERO_Coffee_Table.jpg\" alt=\"Witham Wooden Coffee Table Rectangular In Knotty Oak And Rollers\" width=\"550\" height=\"550\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">witham\u00a0 Witham Wooden Coffee Table Rectangular In Knotty Oak And Rollers<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Horizontal rather than vertical arrangement<\/h3>\n<p>An even less usual and a slightly less challenging example would be to arrange the logs in a horizontal rather than vertical manner. Once again, a coffee table like this will feature a chunky design, perfect in combination with other low standing furniture solutions.<\/p>\n<h3>Paint and finishes<\/h3>\n<p>No matter which approach on how to make coffee table from log you choose, you should not forget about paints and finishes. All in all, painting the piece is not the best idea \u2014 it will \u2018steal\u2019 genuine wood look and feel of the unit and will make the piece look simple. The best idea for any interior type would be to use transparent lacquer \u2014 it will help to preserve natural wooden look while ensuring proper protection from dust and moisture.<\/p>\n<h3>Choice of relevant accessories<\/h3>\n<p>Finally, do not forget that coffee table made of log will look most impressive with other wooden furniture and traditional accessories.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On one hand, how to make coffee table from log is something incredibly simple \u2014 just choose an even log and use it as a coffee table.
