Share0Are you looking for a chic desk on a budget? Look no further than the hairpin desk! This versatile piece can be adapted to any style and is perfect for small spaces. This blog post will show you how to create your hairpin desk using reclaimed wood or metal tubing. So get ready to take your workspace from bland to beautiful!
What You Will Need:
-Reclaimed wood or metal tubing
-Table saw or miter saw
-Drill
-Paint or stain (optional)
–Hairpin Desk Legs (can be found online or at your local hardware store)
The Creation Process:
Step One: Cut Your Wood or Metal Tubing to Size
Using a table or miter saw, cut your wood or metal tubing to the desired size of your desk. You may want to sand down the edges using reclaimed wood for a more finished look.
Step Two: Attach the Hairpin Legs
Once you have cut your wood or metal tubing to size, it is time to attach the hairpin legs. Drill four holes into the underside of your desk, making sure that they are evenly spaced. Then, screw in the hairpin legs using a drill.
Step Three: Add Your Finishing Touches!
Now that the hairpin legs are attached, your desk is finished! However, you may want to add some finishing touches, such as paint or stain. If you are using reclaimed wood, we recommend giving it a light sanding first and then applying a natural beeswax finish. This will help to protect the wood and give it a beautiful patina. And that’s it! You’ve now created a gorgeous hairpin desk on a budget.
