The popular wine table coffee table is very easy to build. You need four equally sized wine boxes. You get them individually or as a set of 4 in the online shop such as from www.obstkisten-weinkisten.com , You smooth the boxes and clean them with a cloth. Now you arrange them to a square on the ground.

The boxes lie on the longer side, with the open side outwards. A short side panel hits the bottom of another box. You measure the square and draw it on the wooden plate. The square forms the floor on which you glue the boxes. So cut out the square. Now you glue the boxes in the places where they hit each other.

You apply the glue on the strips of a short side part and push the box to the bottom of the next one. So it goes on until all 4 wine boxes are glued together. Next comes the glue on the strips that point upwards. Then you lay the plywood board, press it down and let the construction dry for 24 hours. Then the table is glazed or painted in the color of your choice.

Finally, you screw the furniture scooter, table legs or furniture glides on the bottom plate. Done is the table. In the middle you can put a plant or just leave it free. With a glass top as a table top, the coffee table looks very classy.

Of course, you can also build smaller or larger tables. Two boxes with the ground glued together form a small table. If you stack several boxes or stack two boxes on top of each other, your table of fruit boxes will be longer or higher. The solid wood gives the table stability. With furniture castors, the table can be moved out of boxes effortlessly to another place.
