It’s time for another installment of one of my favorite games… splurge or save. This week, we’re talking coffee tables. What is it about this week?? The theme here seems to be “living room inspiration”… I just can’t get enough! Well I’m going with it, to let’s talk about glass topped coffee tables, shall we?
I love a good glass top coffee table – super elegant, and simultaneously modern and traditional. Clean lines, but a bit feminine at the same time…
Can you guess which is the splurge and which is the save??
Are you ready for the reveal?
Admittedly, if you are looking to really save, a glass topped coffee table isn’t going to be the least expensive option out there, but cut glass never is… if you’re willing to put a little elbow grease into a DIY project though, there is an amazing tutorial by Kristen of The Hunted Interior.
She recreated a VERY similar coffee table, using gold leaf, and an Ikea coffee table. Who doesn’t love a good Ikea hack too?!
Gorgeous, right??
Happy Wednesday my friends!

That hack is one of my favorites! I just suggested this for a client! I love a gold and glass coffee table! I found one on CL for $40 and sprayed it… super good deal!

Both of those options are pretty expensive but worth it! I'm not a good DIYer… My projects always look pretty homemade but I feel like that project with the IKEA table is easy enough for me to tackle. Thanks for all the inspiration. I love your blog

Love this! Did you have to get a piece of marble cut for the bottom part? Where do you suggest doing that?
