From the moment I first spotted an elegant wine barrel coffee table, I dreamed of building one that felt more like fine furniture and reflected my style. In this guide, How to Create a Custom Wine Barrel Coffee Table, I’ll walk you through every step—combining photos from several tables I’ve made—to show you exactly how to remove odours, cut and sand the barrel, craft graceful arch legs, and finish your piece with stain, polyurethane, decorative bands and a personalised resin-sealed decal.
Have you ever restored a piece of furniture, only to struggle finding doorknobs to match your vision? That’s exactly what happened to me. I was left with a stunning upcycled buffet but couldn’t find the right knobs to finish the look. That’s when I decided to make my own—and this DIY project turned out better than I expected!
With leftover epoxy resin from another project, I made stunning custom doorknobs using steampunk charms and a few supplies from around the house. In this post, I’ll show you exactly how to make epoxy resin doorknobs or drawer pulls that are both practical and beautiful.
