This week, I’ve got you with one of the most approachable woodworking hacks to date, a custom lift-top coffee table. It is deceptively simple and a perfect project if you need the extra storage, but most lift-top coffee tables are too big, or not quite your style. This DIY ended up being perfect for the final space, and if you’re a woodwork beginner, let me know if this is something you’d be willing to tackle!
