From Amazon Box to Coffee Table with Storage Drawers Took 2 Months
I’m using the shipping boxes I got with my Amazon purchases and creating a coffee table for our apartment. This is not a flimsy piece of college dorm style furniture though. I use multiple layers of corrugated cardboard, decoupage and glue, not to mention plaster, paint, stain, my signature faux finishing, and topcoat, to bring this cardboard coffee table with storage drawers to life! Leave a comment and let me know what you think…

How awesome Jenn!!! ❤❤❤
Wow!!! Love this!!!❤❤❤ super cool!
Oh my gosh Jenn! I didntbeven realize you werr posting videos again! I have alotbof catching up on your channel!! This is a really cool idea ❤❤i hope you are doing good over in new york!
that's so cool! congrats
That definitely takes some patience, the whole process. I would have never thought you could create such cool pieces out of cardboard! So glad your doing what you love!
It really did take some patience, especially with drying time. NY is a touch more humid than AZ lol. Thanks so much, Dar! 🥰 I miss doing furniture, painting, and creating in that way. I might not revive the channel as a weekly thing but hope to be back to this more regularly now that the book is close to release.
Oh my goodness … I can’t believe the result … out of cardboard … so clever … so well done! 😊🩷
Thank you so much Leslie! I hate to waste things and enjoyed the challenge of this project! 🥰
Best wishes for a super successful book launch! Can't wait to get my hands on a copy!! 📖💙😘
Thank youuuuu! 🥰 I can't wait for you to read it! 📘🩵🧜🏼♀️
Oh, this came out great! So creative and useful - well done! 🧡🌵😍
Thanks so much mum! I wish it could've happened during your visit but you'll just have to check it out next time you're here 🥰🌵🧡
@@CopperCactusDIY Something to look forward to! Although better to see you and your mister!🥰🥰
@@JudisJems Aw shucks 🥰🩵
Glad you're back, and congratulations on the book! This table looked like quite a bit of work, but turned out great...especially since the materials were already on hand. Awesome!!!
Thanks so much! It was a definite challenge to get this done but fun to just be creative. Can't wait for book release! Weeeeeee! 🥰
Another creative job done by you. 👏🏼 It looks great. 👍🏼
Thank you so much Tammy! This was one beast of a project to finish. Just glad it wasn't on a deadline 😆🥰
Jenn I've missed you. So good to see you back x
Hey Emer! I've missed everyone too. It's been an invigorating but overwhelming year! Thank you my friend! 🥰
Very creative n turned out great. Congratulations on your books. 🎉 Have an amazing week
Thank you so much Nana! This was such a fun project to complete I had to share it! 🥰
You are adulting every 8 year old’s dream! Cardboard upcycling at its finest 😊 Yay you!
You know I love to upcycle 🙌🏼 Thanks so much, Margie! And at the end of its furniture life, I'll just recycle it! ♻️🥰
So cool! 🤯 Good to see a vid from you! ❤️
I needed something to work on while doing book formatting that had nothing to do with book formatting. 😅 Winner-winner! Thanks sister! 🥰
Wow! So glad to see your name pop up! Missed you Jen!
Thank you so much, Bonnie! It's been a crazy year for sure but this was too fun not to share. 🥰
I love your sense of humour Jenn, it’s so nice to see a new video from you! 😂 This is such a clever idea to build a coffee table from boxes - repurposing at its finest! Congratulations on the new book 🎊🥳
Ahhh, Brenda thank youuuuu! It's so much fun building furniture from cardboard and not having it look like a cardboard box. I missed you all!
Cool.
Thanks so much! 🥰
So happy for an update. Congratulations on the book 🎉
Thank you so much! I've wanted to share this update for a while, so I finally just made the time to film it 😆
So good to hear an update, you go girl with the writing! Something i have always wanted to do!
Oh I love to hear you've considered writing! It's been my therapy, sidekick, and mistress for the better part of 4 decades. Go for it! Thank you so much, Dar, I hope to get paint on my hands again soon 🥰
We miss you but so happy for your book!
Thank you so much, Margie! I miss all of you as well. This has been quite a crazy 8 months!
I would love to see the 45 minutes of video.
Thanks for weighing in! I'm working on some other projects at the moment but hope to get to this extended video soon.
Wow, the finished shelves color is beautiful. 😊
Thanks so much! It's still one of my favorites for furniture with coastal vibes.
Jen please come back we miss you. I really want your witch cabinet my fav.
Aw, thanks so much! It's been impossible to balance these two sides of my life. I'm heavy into book marketing land right now but hope to have an experimental furniture video up in the fall! Thanks for being awesome and sticking around through my much needed burnout avoidance break!
A big pile of nothing.
Such a great job. Looks amazing.
Thanks so much, I appreciate that!
When’s your next video coming out pls?
Not sure, life has taken a turn for me and YT is the last thing on my mind right now.
THAT is VERY cool!!! Just found your channel and look forward to watching more videos.
Thanks so much! I had a lot of fun on this project, learning new skills. Thanks for checking it out!
Maple always needs a pre-stain conditioner as it receives stain in very blotchy patterns. If you had used this, you wouldn't have had so much work to do getting the stain to look good. However, in the end, you got there. It's beautiful ❣️
Thank you, I appreciate that you enjoyed the end result. However, this particular brand of stain (Faux Effects Stain and Seal) will not function properly over a pre-stain wood conditioner, regardless of wood type. The formula doesn't penetrate, it bonds. It would bond with the pre-stain and eventually peel off the surface. This is why it's important to understand the particular product as well as the substrate it requires to be successful.
I would have applied wood conditioner first to allow the stain to adhere evenly.
For oil based stains and some gel stains that's true. Faux Effects formula will not perform correctly over wood conditioner.
Beautiful!
Thank you so much!
You are so funny!
Aw thanks! Always happy to entertain! 🥰
Too much useless babbling
Nice job, Jenn! Love to see you making furniture look better. xoxo P.S. How is your thumb?? x
Thank youuuuu mum! 🥰 I'm happy to be back and doing this again on a part-time basis. Thumb is all better, thanks for asking! 💕
Great job jen, I have never seen this latex block liquid, cool. Thanks for the link to your spot on Amazon, I will check it out for sure. I have written alot when I was younger, but have not lately, just the blog spot I have thats been inactive for 2 years 😮, good to see you, happy holidays
It's awesome stuff! Couple pointers though: 1. it will dry out and solidify in the bottle so seal really well and use it quickly once open and 2. any brush used is destroyed so choose wisely! It stinks and tarnished real metal but otherwise it works like a dream on weird shaped things. That's so great! What did you write in the past, fiction or non-fiction? Thanks so much, Dar! 🥰
Totally loving the *** on the coaster, the kid scream with the cat, and....oh yeah....the final result! Hopefully not too much hate from the haters.........I'd be interested to see how long it takes to bleed through substantially. Hope your thumb healed up!
Haha, yeah I figured I should bleep it out in a visual way but it's my life's motto 😜 I'm happy to hear you liked the final results, thank you so much! Surprisingly, no hate yet. That could be because I'm a teeny tiny nobody channel... or maybe it's still early lol. Thanks again!
Yay so happy to see you back in action, sorry about your thumb 😟 Love the driftwood vibe!
Thank you my friend, I'm getting there! It's crazy how much I have to slow down or stretch things out these days when I'm doing physical stuff. Hooray for middle-age lol. Setting up the studio is almost done though and then I can get crazy with the projects again!
Great idea 👏👏
Thank you so much! 🥰
Love "Brown Boxes", glad you used it! The piece is sweet! Would never have know what the drawer pull was if you didn't show it being made - so clever!! Nice to see and hear you, too! Love you!! 🤩🧡🌵
Right? I love that song too! Thanks so much mum! 🥰 I recently sorted through some sewing stuff and had extra bobbins, it seemed like a good way to use them instead of tossing.
@@CopperCactusDIY Forgot to also mention how cool your newish transitions are in the video! 🥰
@@JudisJems ahhh thank you for noticing! I'm learning new tricks with my software 😎
Glad to see you back! Still impressed what you can turn cardboard into.........amazing! Also glad you're getting writing again! Where do you find all the time? LOL
Aw thank you so much, that means a lot! I'm having fun with this medium and hope to make a lot more pieces. Time, that is the enemy lol. 🥰
You have been on my mind for weeks!!, so glad to see you. I luv the cardboard creations. This one turned out excellent. The bobbin idea is genius. Keep on, keeping on girl!!
I've missed everyone so much! It's been crazy trying to get settled in and back into a routine. This was all much easier as a younger gal lol. Thank you so much, Dar! I'm having fun using up all this cardboard for functional stuff. 🥰
This came out so cool! Hope Matt is still loving it. As you know, and cannot wait for your next book to drop. But also glad to see you back on video! ❤️
He is! Actually he just started using it a week or so ago due to cure time. Now that he's got the storage though he's psyched. Thanks so much, sister! 🥰
Jenn!!!! How nice to see you back!! I love your wonderful skills and I can’t wait for next video!! ❤❤❤❤ although furniture will always be your main focus, don’t forget cardboard. It’s so beautiful!! Love youuuu. ❤❤❤
Aw Andy I missed you! Thank you so much for the encouragement my friend. 🥰 It's been a crazy few months getting settled and unpacked. These projects are so much fun but sometimes I do miss painting wood or veneer! 😆 glad to be back 💕💕
No way you are an author! Wow how cool🎉 lovely to see you tinkering again😊
My first love is definitely words, but paint is a very close second lol. Thanks so much Margie! 🥰 It feels good to get back to work.
Hi, Jen! Cool dresser caddy! Are you and Mr. CCdiy settled in or still living out of boxes? Love that your hair and glasses coordinate beautifully with the room you’re in. I’m going to check out your books but I just want to say it’s great to see you again, and I hope you have a tour of your new abode or neighborhood sometimes soon.🌸 Happy Halloween!👻🎃🍁🍂🌕🍬
It's still a little of both, unfortunately. After six months I hoped to have all our stuff organized. Sadly we sold a lot of our old furniture with our house so there's nowhere to put everything. Hence the cardboard furniture! Yes! I have a bit of video setting up my new studio and I'll work on getting that video out soon as well. Thanks so much Deborah! I missed you all! Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🥰
Will The California Dreaming Series be in paperback soon? Sadly I don't download books. Definitely would buy that series in paperback.
I definitely understand and yes, I'm hopeful by next summer to have all of my books available in paperback. It's slow going as an Indie and working on these new books means I have to leave my old books in the dust for a while. I'll keep you posted. Thanks so much, Georgie and happy Halloween!
Nice! Such a great idea.
Thanks, Sue! His stuff was getting out of control and we certainly had the cardboard available! 🥰
I read that opening about "aging vengefully," and thought, DANG, that's Hardcore!!! [Great Video!!]
haha, that's the plan! Thank you so much, happy Halloween! 🎃👻🥰
Your restoration is lovely! I have a vintage (antique maybe) Crawford maple dresser and what I really like about it is the finish color. A restoration is kind of a trade off: the piece loses that original luster but becomes a gorgeous new creation. For now, I’ll try to figure out how to clean it up and maybe someday consider a full resto. You are very talented at your crafts (furniture refinishing and entertaining and helpful TH-cam videos)!
That's so nice of you, thanks so much! 🥰 You'll have to stop by and let me know if you ever do decide to restore. Sometimes the original piece is just in such disrepair it's necessary to give the refresh to save the wood. This one never would've worked to try to color match with the original cherry. My client was thrilled and that's the thing that matters most to me!
@@CopperCactusDIY Yes, a happy client is the desired end result! And speaking of repairs, it was amazing what you were able to do!
Stunning❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much! 🥰
I LOVE IT!! THAT'S GENIUS 💖
Ahhh thanks so much Laura! 🥰 This project was fun!!
