Build a handy craft table

Steps: 

1. Cut a piece of 1"-inch thick melamine panel to measure 24" wide by 48" long.
2. Stick pre-glued melamine edge banding to what will be the three outer edges of the table top.
3. Use brackets to fasten the 44" length of 1" x 3" board under the back edge of the table so you can secure it to the wall (see step 6).
4. Position and screw the two leg brackets to the underside of the table top, at each front corner.
5. Screw the two metal legs into the brackets.
6. Fasten the table to the wall with screws.

Affordable and easy to work with, melamine is also easy to clean. However, if you prefer a more natural look, use wood or particleboard that you can stain or varnish.
