DIY Coffee Table

This table project, while extremely simple, is special. We are the third house on our street that this table has been able to call home. Our next door neighbor had it first, then the across-the-street neighbor bought it at their garage sale and then I liked it and they weren't able to use it anymore, so they gave it to me!

Sorry for the dark pictures, the living room doesn't get the best light. I know white isn't much of a risk, but we did buy cobalt blue and chickened out at the last minute. I actually like the white. With the gray walls, lighter furniture works well.
