How to Make a Chicken Coop Coffee Table
Turning an old chicken coop into a unique and stylish coffee table is an easy way to add character and charm to any room or backyard. Here’s how to make a chicken coop coffee table in a few simple steps.
Gather your materials
- Old chicken coop
- Wooden boards and screws
- Paint, sealant, and other materials (if desired)
- Tools, such as a saw and drill
Prepare the coop
Fix any broken areas of the coop by patching with pieces of wood and screws. Ensure that all of the joints are secure. Clean and seal the coop, if desired, to protect it from the elements. Paint and sealant may be used to give the finished product a specific look.
Construct the tabletop
Cut wooden boards to the appropriate size for the tabletop and screw them into place. You can also use prefabricated furniture boards for a simpler approach. If you desire, you can stain the boards for a more polished look.
Mount the coop and tabletop
Mount the coop onto four strong legs of your choice – you can use traditional table legs or more creative, vintage-style legs. Once the coop is securely mounted, place the tabletop onto the top of the coop and screw it in place.
Final touches
At this point, the chicken coop coffee table is complete. Decorate it with a unique tabletop centerpiece, such as a piece of art or a terrarium, and place it in the desired location.
Congrats – you’ve just created a one-of-a-kind coffee table that is sure to be the life of the party!
