There’s something so satisfying about building your own dining room table.

The first solid piece of furniture we built was our turned-leg coffee table (see it here).

I love that our family gathers around both tables on a daily basis and that they were both built by my husband Jeremy and me. Not only are these tables the most functional pieces of furniture in our home, but they are both the most sentimental.

It is Easy to Build a Farmhouse Table?

When we built our previous dining table, we used an old butcher block top attached to a table apron and 4 turned legs I bought online.  Unfortunately, the dense, heavy wood of the butcher block top was way too heavy for those dainty turned legs and we eventually decided the butcher block top had to go.

“Plan B” was to reuse the same legs and build the rest of the table with a Kreg jig. And thus, our DIY farm table plans were born.

JUST FYI: Our dinner table has a white base and white legs because they are reused from a previous table I had painted.   For the same of this tutorial, I’ll be explaining this as if we are building the table from scratch – since we essentially are.

Fortunately, our Plan B turned out SO much better than Plan A.  I don’t usually say this about my own projects but I am SO stinkin’ proud of how it turned out!   These plans are easy for beginners and give you the look of a high-end table in any furniture store.

I love the look of this table much more than the old one!   It’s probably not a good idea to get emotionally attached to furniture, but every time I pass by it, it puts a big smile on my face!

How To Make A Farmhouse Table That Is Durable

If you want farmhouse table plans for beginners, you have come to the right place, my friend!  These instructions explain how to build a farmhouse table with pocket holes.  In other words, you will use a Kreg jig to join together pieces of wood with pocket screws.

Kreg Joinery is an incredibly fast, strong, and simple way of joining wood together. It essentially involves drilling holes at 15-degree angles into one workpiece and then joining it to a second workpiece with self-tapping screws. Not only is the Kreg jig easy to use it’s an incredibly strong method of wood joinery that rivals techniques that are much more advanced.

While it may seem simple, the technique is revolutionary because of how easy it is. When you’re done assembling, there’s no need to leave your joint clamped up for hours, glue is completely optional, and there are no frustrating alignment problems to deal with.

Kreg Jig projects are so simple they can be built in just a few easy steps – it’s as easy as drill, drive, and you’re done!

One consideration is how thick you want your tabletop.  These diy farmhouse table plans are for a tabletop with 1 x’s (the wood was an inch thick before it was milled and now is really 3/4″ thick).  Many farmhouse kitchen table plans use thicker wood for the tops. 

However, I love how the thinner top matches the sophisticated look of the turned legs.  Because the top is a little bit thinner, it’s important to add stringers underneath the table for extra support so your boards don’t warp. 

This is a super easy project because of the Kreg jig and my farmhouse dining table instructions will show you exactly what to do.

What Kind of Wood Should I Use to Build a Farmhouse Table?

One of the most important considerations is what type of wood to use to build your farmhouse table.  Your biggest limitation is of course cost.  I used common pine on this table and my coffee table instead of a higher-grade wood. 

The faux stain technique I used covered all of the knot holes and blemishes giving me the look of high-end wood but with a low-cost price tag. To read more about options of solid wood, click here: What Wood Is Best For A Dining Table?

How TO Save a Ton of Money While Still Getting the Look You Want

You can save a lot of money by building a farmhouse dining room table yourself instead of buying new.  But you can save even more money by just getting a common material like pine instead of the higher-grade pine or white oak and using a faux finish. 

In the past, I have opted for the higher grade wood because I don’t like the look of knotholes in my furniture pieces.  Common pine is durable and cheap but always has lots of knotholes and irregularities. 

The higher-grade wood is quite a bit more expensive so I decided to buy common pine (knot holes and all!). The good thing about a faux stain is that it covers all knot holes and imperfections.  A traditional stain will always allow knot holes to show through but my faux stains give the look of a very high-grade wood while spending quite a bit less on wood. 

How Do You Make A Table Look Like A Farmhouse Table – With Faux Stains!

In addition to the curvy milled legs, faux finishes go a long way in helping any table to have that farmhouse furniture aesthetic. You won’t believe the end result – all thanks to low-cost pine and a faux stain using latex paint samples from Home Depot! Here are some awesome ideas on how to refinish your farm table:

Also, a traditional stain can be pretty unpredictable as it doesn’t always absorb the same on pieces that have been sanded more than others.  Uneven moisture levels in the wood can also cause issues with unevenness in the absorption of traditional stains.  With the above faux stains, you have total control of what your final product will look like.

How Much Does it Cost to Build a Farmhouse Table?

The total cost breakdown using common pine and a faux stain to hide knotholes was less than $150.  The legs are by far the greatest expense.  If I used a higher grade wood like oak without knot holes, there would be a significant extra cost involved.  Most similar farmhouse tables online cost anywhere from $500 to $2000 or more.

How to Build a Farm Table with Pocket Holes

Before I first used a Kreg jig, I was so intimidated but once I started I was amazed at how much time it says, how precise the hole placement was, and also the strength of the joints. 

After using a Kreg jig to build furniture, I’d never consider another method of furniture building.  It is that easy and you can be confident your furniture piece will last for years to come.

NEW TO WOODWORKING? The first step is setting up your Kreg for the thickness of the wood.  I used 1x 8’s for my tabletop so I adjusted the Kreg jig to wood with a thickness of 3/4″.  That also meant that I would need … pocket holes.  You can see some great instructions here to get you started:   How To Set Up and Use a Kreg Jig

DIY Farmhouse Table Dimensions

  • Height – 30″
  • Width – 36.5
  • Length – 60.25″

How To Build A Large Dining Room Table Customized To Your Needs

We built a small farmhouse table but if you need a big table for a large family, the dimensions can be adapted to best fit your space needs.  To make adjustments for a long table, add the same length to the lengthwise tabletop boards and to the long pieces of the apron.

To change the width of the table, you can add more center planks. To get the desiredt width, you can swap out multiples of 1×6’s or 1×4’s but make sure to get more pocket hole screws if you go with these smaller boards.

How to Select the Best Lumber for Your DIY Farmhouse Table

When you select boards from your local lumber yard or local hardware store, to buy the best pieces for your project. Be sure that the boards you select are straight boards by looking down the end of each. Also, don’t get boards with a green tint because those boards are brand new and will contract some as they dry.

How to Build Farmhouse Table: The Process

This process is so easy but so you can better see the details of this woodworking project, I’ve included a video.  We were able to finish the entire table in a couple of hours.  After a break from the heat, I started the faux stain process the next morning.  You won’t believe how great it turned out!

Here is a full step-by-step video showing everything from start to finish. If you don’t see it pop up, you can also find it here: Make a Beautiful DIY Farmhouse Table, YouTube Video

Step 1: How to Make a DIY Farmhouse TableTop

One of the first things you need to do is to lay out your cut boards side-to-side.  I like to alternate the grain direction of my boards as this will help to ensure the top of the table does not warp over time.  See how each board’s grain is going in the opposite direction of the one next to it.

Using the right tools makes all the difference! If you are brand new to the concept of building a farmhouse table with pocket holes, check out this video:  How to Use a Kreg Jig

Now it’s time to drill your 3/4″ pocket holes into all of the boards except one as shown in the diagram below.  Once you have drilled screw holes in each board, you can join them together with your 1 1/4 pocket hole screws. Be sure to do this on clean level surface so the surface of the boards line up evenly.

I like to use this clamp (click here for the current price) to overlap the boards as I put in the wood screws to ensure the top is as smooth as possible.

How to build a farmhouse table with pocket holes

We used a compound miter saw (this one) to make straight cuts along each cut line.  You can also use a table saw for your parallel cuts. If you are using a circular saw and the ends of the tabletop boards aren’t exactly the same, you can simply trim off the extra lengths with your circular saw.

Should You Glue Pocket Hole Joints?

Before you join your wood together, you have the option to add some glue in between each board for an even stronger joint.  If you do, make sure to wipe off the excess glue that squeezes out between the boards

Renovated Faith: What’s in a Name?

God never leaves a project half-done…He continually works on each one of us, as a lavish expression of His amazing love and grace.  So many of my DIY projects serve as a reminder of how God renovates our hearts.  If you are a work-in-progress, like I am, be sure to check out the Renovate Your Faith Devotional at the bottom of this post.  Click here to get a weekly reminder of new posts by email.

Step 2: HOw To Add Breadboard Ends To The Farm Table

The next step is to add the breadboard ends, which are the boards at each end of farmhouse table tops. It helps to give the table top a clean, finished look.  

how to build a farmhouse table with pocket holes

IMPORTANT TIP: Hold each breadboard end to the edge of the table and mark where your pocket holes should be.  Make sure to avoid putting holes where the other table top boards meet.  We put extra holes in the breadboard ends because you are drilling into the end of the wood and the screws are slightly more apt to strip out.  With the extra holes, it doesn’t matter if one or two strip out because you’ve built in some insurance for yourself.

Once you have made holes in each of your breadboard ends, you can attach those ends to the table with your pocket hole screws.  Use a clamp (or a friend) to hold the boards even.

You can now see your farmhouse dining table taking shape.  Most of the work is done and you won’t believe how great your table will look when it’s done!

Step 3:  How to Make A Farmhouse Table Base

Now that you are finished with the top, it’s time to move on to the frame which includes the legs and 4 aprons or skirt boards.  Add pocket holes to your apron boards like so:

how to build a farmhouse table with pocket holes

When it was time to attach the aprons to the legs, we used a scrap piece of wood that was 3/4″ deep to offset the apron from the leg.  You can better see how we did this in the video.

Do the same with all four legs and apron boards.

Here’s the finished table base. My table legs and one of the aprons is white because I recycled them from our old table.

Where to Find Legs for a Farmhouse Dining Table

My favorite place to buy table legs is Osborne Wood.  No matter your style, they have unlimited choices in legs for any big project.  You can see the full selection of turned dining table legs here: Turned Farmhouse Dining Table Legs

Step 4: Attach the Table Top to the Frame of The Farm Table

Finally, you can attach your tabletop to your frame.  Lay the tabletop (bottom side up) on the grown and put the frame on top as shown in the video.

Center the frame and then attach it to the top with pocket hole screws.

Step 5:  DIY Farmhouse Table That Won’t Warp – Add Supports

Support stringers are simply cross pieces under the tabletop that help to ensure the top boards stay in place and do not warp over time.  For our farmhouse dining table, we added 3 supports.  Add pocket holes to each support stringer as shown in the image above.

Once you’ve added the pocket holes, attach each to your dining table frame.

Step 6: How to Build DIY Farmhouse Table – Final Touches

The final step is to prepare your table for stain – whether it is a faux stain like the one on my table or a traditional stain.

how to build a farmhouse table

Prep When Using a Traditional Stain:

Use a stainable wood filler to fill any holes.  You will still be able to see the hole because oftentimes the stainable wood filler doesn’t match the wood exactly. Also, be sure to use a wood conditioner before staining so the stain absorbs evenly.

Prep When Using a Faux Stain With Latex Paint

Use wood filler to fill any holes, large gaps, and knot holes to your heart’s content. (See how to fill holes in furniture here.) Even the knot holes will not show through the final faux stain.  If you are painting your piece white, go over knot holes with Zinnser BIN primer.  I used a primer over the whole piece but this is optional when you are working with raw wood or a piece painted with latex paint.

Sanding Your DIY Dining Room Table

Sand the table evenly with a high-grit sanding pad on your mouse sander.  This is to remove any splinters and make the surface smooth.  I also like to run the sander over each corner of the tabletop a couple of times to round the sharp, straight edges. If you are unsure about how to use a mouse sander, check out this post here:  How to Sand Furniture in Less Than 5 Minutes

You can also use a belt sander or orbital sander but I like how much control the mouse sander provides.

RENOVATE YOUR FAITH: Embracing “Plan B”

As I mentioned earlier, the plans for this farmhouse table were born out of our previous table whose butcher block top was way too heavy for these turned legs.

If the first table was never wobbly and unstable, we would have never built our current dining table which I actually love so much more.

I don’t know about you but I like to mentally have my ducks in a row.  I find great joy in list-making and planning because it gives me a sense of control.  But when my original plan fall through and I have to resort to another path, I get frustrated and thrown off balance.

So often I can identify with Peter in the Bible because he is always a man with a plan.  

This was definitely the case on the Mount of Transfiguration.  In Matthew 17, we see Jesus taking Peter, James and John up the mountain by themselves:

“There he(Jesus) was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light.  Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus.”

And at this moment, when the other two disciples stook in awe, Peter said to Jesus:

“Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.  While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him, I am well pleased. Listen to him!”  When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified.  But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus.”

In the midst of this moment of divine splendor, Peter got so carried away with his “big plan” that God The Father had to step in and say, “This is my Son, whom I am well-pleased.  LISTEN TO HIM.”

Peter practically had everyone’s suitcases packed for them to live together on the mountain in perfect harmony.  Maybe he figured they could walk on water together in their spare time.

But Peter’s “Plan A” was not God’s plan.

With the uncertainty of the world today, I’m willing to bet that a lot of us are having to pivot and resort to our “Plan B’s”.

This year is not at all like we thought it would be.  Maybe you are a teacher that is nervous about what this coming school year will bring.  Possibly you have been furloughed from your job.  Or perhaps your small business is at risk.

Regardless, we can rest in knowing that when God escorts us to “Plan B”, it’s because He loves us too much to waste eternal blessings for our temporary sufferings.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” – Romans 8:28

In other words, God has the big picture in mind.  He can see over the horizon of this valley of uncertainty onto blessings that will be well worth the wait.

But at the same time, God doesn’t make light of our suffering but hurts alongside of us.  Psalm 56:8 says, “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.”

As you navigate through the unexpected obstacles of 2020, know that God is working for your good.  He is not indifferent to your pain but cares in detail about what’s troubling you.  Know that He knows you better than you know yourself and He can be a source of rest and peace during this difficult time.

FAQ’s: DIY Farmhouse Table with Pocket Holes

How to Build a Farmhouse Table for Outside

You can use these same plans to build a farmhouse table for an outdoor table or picnic table.  While the building process is the same, you need a tougher clear coat for outdoor furniture to ensure it lasts a long time.  I highly recommend this topcoat for your outdoor dining table: The Best Exterior Clear Coat for Furniture

When Are Pocket Holes An Appropriate Wood Joinery Technique / How Do You Make A Farmhouse Table for Beginners?

Pocket holes are not only strong and an easy woodworking technique but they are great for beginners.  If you make a mistake with the placement of a pocket hole screw, you can easily unscrew it and add a new pocket hole.  For beginners, this is really appealing because it gives you a lot of flexibility other than more permanent joinery methods.  This particularly came in handy as we used the legs from our old table to build this table.  It was really easy to simply unscrew the old pocket hole screws.

Can You Spray Paint a FarmHouse Dining Table?

I wouldn’t use spray paint on larger pieces of furniture because it is cost-prohibitive and you won’t get an even finish. For small pieces of wood furniture, like a small bench or stool, spray paint can be a good option. For my best tips on using a spray primer to speed up the process, click here: Time-Saving Tips for Painting Table Legs

How Do You Make a Small Farmhouse Table?

The farmhouse table in this build is on the smaller side as our dining room is small and there are only three of us in our family.  However, you can use the plans to make the table as long as you’d like if your space allows.  Simply adjust the length of the boards and 2 long aprons.

How Wide Should A Farmhouse Table Be?

A farmhouse table should be between 36″ and 40″ wide which gives you ample space for placemats and a centerpiece. But as always adapt your dining room table woodworking plants to adapt to the needs of your dining area.

How Thick Should Wood Be For A Table top?

Most farmhouse tables are made with 2x’s but there weren’t many options online for a farmhouse dining table with a 1x top.  I love the thinner top because it better accents the sophisticated turned legs of this particular dining room table.  For a 1x top, add at few stringers to ensure the top doesn’t warp.  This is my second table to build with a thinner top and I’ve never had any problems.

How Do You Make a Cheap Table Look Fabulous?
