Just make sure that you find a good coffee table plan that looks similar to the one you have in mind. Even if you are a novice woodworker you will be able to make some changes as you go along if necessary. Also, make sure that the plan of your choice includes at least the following:

A list of materials. If you have all the materials necessary to complete the job then you are halfway done. Having a complete list of materials to make your brand new coffee table will save you tons of time and money.

A list of tools. No tools, no work! There are many tools that are expensive to buy just for building one piece of furniture but there is always the "tool rental" option. Pretty cheap too.

Diagrams. Having visual instructions makes the work a whole lot easier. Make sure your coffee table woodworking plans includes this. This is of extreme importance if you are a newbie woodworker.

If you have the above in your woodworking plans I can almost guarantee you will love the end result. A word of advice though: Never start any project without reading and understanding the whole instructional materials because this little misstep could cost you hundreds and cause you to go over budget.
