Sometimes when I finish a major project, I need a break to do something small that I can tackle quickly. That was the case with this table. The balusters and campaign pulls do all the heavy lifting in adding detail to this super easy project. It’s really just like my anywhere table, but with baluster legs. Easily customize the color, hardware and size to get the perfect fit for you!

Supplies

This table is totally customizable according to your needs. I’m giving measurements here for your reference.

  1. 4 Balusters (I used these – 34″)
  2. 1×12 panel @ 35″ – top (see note)
  3. 1×4
    • (2) @ 8 3/4″ – side aprons
    • (2) @ 31 3/4″ – front and back aprons
  4. 1 1/4″ kreg screws

Note: Be sure to measure your panel and adjust your side aprons according to the width of your panel and your desired overhang. The panel I used (you can find it here) is actually 12″ wide (the website incorrectly reports it as 11 1/4″). Typical 1x12s are 11 1/4″.

Supplies Ready

Steps

  1. Start by cutting down your balusters. I cut the square ends down so the straight edge is 4 3/4″, then cut down the circular end so that the entire leg measured 30 1/2″. If you’d like a shorter table, cut any remaining length from the circular end.
  2. Drill pocket holes into the ends of each apron. Because we will be screwing the aprons into the legs in the same spot, I line up the edge of the 1×4 in the same spot each time. See images below. Also drill a few pocket holes into the tops of the apron for attaching the table top in step 5.
  3. Construct the sides by attaching each side apron to two legs using 1 1/4″ pocket hole screws, keeping the inside of the apron flush with the inside of the leg.
  4. Once your sides are constructed, attach the front and back aprons using 1/4″pocket hole screws.
  5. Center and attach the top by screwing pocket hole screws from the aprons into the table top.
  6. Deck it out to your liking and enjoy!

Step 2: Lining up the 1×4 all the way to the right (left picture) will ensure the pocket screws do not interfere with each other when screwing into the leg (right picture).

Finish it off

I used black semi-gloss paint, and for some reason the shiny black legs reminded me of a piano. Lastly, I totally love these campaign pulls which you can find here. They match the mirror nicely, which is from Target’s Opalhouse line (as are the flowers). I’ve been loving their stuff lately, and I picked up these flowers while I was at it – perfect for Valentine’s Day!
