DIFFICULTY

Epoxy river tables and furniture have become the ultimate statement piece for homes and offices. These high-ticket items combine natural wood with colorful resin for truly one-of-a-kind pieces. Shopify handles the heavy lifting of selling $500-5,000+ furniture online.

WHAT YOU NEED TO START
01

Workshop & Equipment

Large, flat, level workspace, pressure pot or vacuum chamber for bubble-free cures, CNC or router sled for flattening, and heavy-duty clamps and mold-building supplies.

02

Epoxy Resin & Wood

Deep-pour epoxy (MAS, Ecopoxy, TotalBoat), live-edge wood slabs, pigments and mica powders. A single river table can use $100-500 in resin alone.

03

Finishing & Assembly Tools

Orbital sander, router, planer, lathe (optional), metal or wood legs, and high-quality clear coat or oil finishes for the final surface.

STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE
01

Master the Pour Process

Practice with small pieces first (coasters, trays). Learn pour depth limits, bubble elimination, cure temperatures, and demolding techniques before attempting large tables.

02

Source Quality Live-Edge Slabs

Build relationships with local sawmills for book-matched slabs. Kiln-dried wood prevents cracking. Understand how wood moisture content affects epoxy adhesion.

03

Document Your Builds

Film and photograph every project from raw slab to finished table. This content sells your work more effectively than any product description.

04

Set Up a Premium Shopify Store

Position as a luxury/artisan brand. Show each piece's story, dimensions, wood species, and resin colors. Offer both ready-made pieces and custom commissions.

05

Build a Commission Pipeline

Most epoxy furniture is custom. Create a clear custom order process on Shopify: consultation form, deposit payment, design approval, and production timeline.

TIPS FOR SUCCESS

Always pour in a temperature-controlled environment (70-80°F) and use a pressure pot for crystal-clear, bubble-free results

Require a 50% deposit for custom orders via Shopify's draft order feature to protect against cancellations on high-ticket items

Create a portfolio page on your Shopify store showcasing past projects — for high-ticket items, social proof is essential

Offer matching pieces (coffee table + end tables + coasters) as a set for interior designers and high-budget customers

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much can I sell an epoxy river table for?

Prices vary by size and complexity. Small coffee tables sell for $500-1,500, dining tables for $2,000-8,000+, and large conference tables for $5,000-15,000+. Pricing depends on wood species, resin volume, complexity, and your brand positioning.

How long does it take to make an epoxy table?

A typical river table takes 2-4 weeks from start to finish: slab preparation (2-3 days), resin pouring and curing (5-7 days with multiple pours), flattening and sanding (1-2 days), and finishing (2-3 days with cure time between coats).

How do I ship large epoxy furniture?

Use freight shipping services (LTL freight). Crate tables with 2x4 frames and foam padding. Insure for full value. Offer white-glove delivery as a premium option through Shopify's third-party shipping integrations.
