Mandala Stenciled IKEA Round Coffee Table

OOOOHHHMMMM... are you feeling the zen? When I saw this round coffee table I saw one of my mandala stencils right in the center for a zen like design.

Take 1 round black IKEA coffee table


Step one is always to clean the furniture piece well then sand the edges and add wood filler to any areas needing it

Add a fresh coat of black paint


Fusion Mineral Paint in coal black was brushed on in the direction of the wood grain using my Cling On short brush. Using a mister bottle helps keep the paint moving well when needed.

One coat was all that was needed to fresh up the paint.

Now for the fun part, the mandala stencil. My favorite is this  prosperity mandala stencil from Cutting Edge. It comes in a variety of sizes to fit every project. This one is 24". I have used  prosperity mandala on these other projects including the largest size on my deck to create a mandala rug that has been a top project on my blog.

And your room has some amazing zen presence


I am also a fan of  Cutting Edge Stencil Tools Kit too. Here are other  Cutting Edge stencil projects.


I used a subtle metallic brown colored metallic paint to compliment the black.

The metallic paint needed a sealer so the entire top was clear poly coated with a damp sponge and 4 coats of clear poly. 


There is a full detailed tutorial of this project linked at the bottom of this post which also had loads of videos.

Ready to serve


This super sized coffee table has a lower shelf for storage and loads of eye appeal.

    I love the Mandela you chose, it really suits the design of the table. I made something along the same lines except I wanted to try my hand at painting. Someone had given me an oak dining table, and it still had the leaves with it, so I cut it down to coffee table height. You open it up with the leaves there's two roses, and close it, there's one rose. There's one problem with it though. I gave it to my sister to store for me when I was moving, and can't get it back now. What di you think?
