Rachelle's Inspired Coffee Table

Hey Everyone! Today I am excited to share a before and after/DIY from a reader and fellow blogger. Rachelle has a great blog called Adventures in Creating where she takes on all sorts of projects. A while ago, Rachelle mentioned that she was particularly inspired by this coffee table.

While most people would save up the money and buy a piece of furniture that they loved, Rachelle decided that she would DIY these nesting tables herself!! What makes that particularly impressive is that Rachelle used a welder to create her version.

She started with these metal tubes.

And after some super woman skills, she had her bases put together.

After the hard part was complete, Rachelle built the wood top with mending plates (instructions are on her blog) and she ended up with this!!!
