Everything you love about the classic picnic table, but in a cozier, updated design! Here’s why we love this square picnic table
Square Picnic Table Features
- Seating on four sides, for a cozier experience
- Easy to build design
- Comfortably seats four adults, could seat as many as 8
- Smaller footprint may be more suitable for some spaces
- Fun, modern design
Sitting around a table, instead of in a line at a table, is usually more desireable. But most round style picnic tables – whether it’s an octagon or a hexagon or a four sided picnic table – become complicated and hard to build. In this plan, we tried our hardest to create a project that is quick and easy to build, but still gives you a quality project that you will love for many years.

Out 2×4 Outdoor Collection is a reader favorite! Since so many of you have built the sofa or sectional pieces, we thought we’d add a side table plan to the collection too.
All of the plans in the 2×4 Outdoor Sofa collection are available here.
This collection is so popular because:
- It’s easy to build with just straight cuts, a drill and a saw
- It’s all 2x4s, so holds up well and is heavy enough to not blow away in the wind
- Easy to modify to fit spaces and custom needs
- Can paint or stain just about any color
We love this little side table, because it’s just four 2x4s to build it! It’s sturdy enough to hold a plant or even an occasional guest!

This beautiful barn door entertainment center does it all while looking good too! It is a HUGE project – up there with a kitchen build – but with the simplified step by step plans, not hard to do. It took us two days to build and finish and cost us about $1000.
- Fits TV up to 65″ WIDE with adjustable heights
- TONS of storage hidden and exposed, perfect for hiding and displaying
- Top can be used for storage or display too
- Sliding barn doors keep everything easily accessible
- No door swings, so can fit in a tighter space
- Durable 3/4″ plywood construction with face frames is how the pros do it – you’ll be getting a craftsman quality piece!
- Can be easily modified and finished in any color or stain
