How can I make a small storage area/ table for my living room?

Do you want to make one? Upcycle something?

Use a trunk for a coffee table and or short chest for an end table.

Alternatively I always feel its more economical to purchase furniture second hand on Craigslist or at thrift tores, consignment shops.
