Create your own coffee table using books! Go thrifting for hardcover books and stack them to the height of your choosing. Use different sizes and colors for a truly colorful masterpiece. Glue the books together using Gorilla glue. Then once you have four equally tall book stacks, top them with a wood plank or a glass piece.

Think of your absolute favorite book. You could have the first page on a wall of your choosing!

Then using a steady hand and some opaque black paint, get to work!
