Materials You’ll Need:
- Normal Coffee Table
- Crushed glass
- Resin mixed with hardeners
- Breathing protective gear

Steps To Follow:
- Prepare Your Space: Place your coffee table on a flat, dry surface. Cover the surface with a large plastic tarp in order to protect it from the resin and glass.
- Pour and Spread the Crushed Glass: Start by pouring one container of crushed glass onto the coffee table. Make sure to pour evenly so that the entire surface is covered. Use your hands or a rubber tool to spread the glass.
- Mix the Resin: Prepare the resin and hardener according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Be sure to use the correct ratio of resin and hardener and mix thoroughly. Pour the mixture over the crushed glass and spread it with a rubber tool if needed.
- Let It Cure: Allow the resin to cure according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This process can take several hours or up to a day, depending on the type of resin used.
- Enjoy Your New Coffee Table: Once the resin has cured, you are ready to enjoy your new shattered glass coffee table!
Important Considerations:
- Be sure to use protective gear when dealing with glass and resin as these can be hazardous to your health.
- Make sure the surface is completely dry before applying the resin.
- Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when dealing with resin.
