- 1). Select a wooden foyer table with an overhang around the top edge. Cut your fabric to the dimensions of your tabletop plus 2 inches on all sides.
- 2). Extend the fabric across the surface of the table. Make sure it is oriented properly, with equal amounts of excess fabric on all sides. Fold the excess fabric along one of the table’s short edges underneath the overhang and staple to the underside of the table. Continue stapling along the short side. Smooth fabric as you go.
- 3). Move directly across the table to the other short edge. Pull fabric gently toward you to remove any gathering or bunching of fabric, then staple along that short edge to attach excess fabric to the underside of the overhang.
- 4). Repeat on both long edges of the table. Be sure to flatten out any lumps before proceeding with stapling for a smooth fabric-covered surface. When you reach the corners where the long edges meet the short edges, smoothly fold the corners and staple them underneath as well.
- 5). Place a clear vinyl disc on each corner of the table. Space them out evenly. Cover with a piece of glass cut to the dimensions of your tabletop.
