Looking for an original, trendy and ultra-creative decoration idea? Thanks to this DIY tutorial, bring a touch of fun and freshness to your interior! Your guests are clearly not ready!
There’s nothing like a DIY project to breathe modernity and personality into a decor. In addition to being inexpensive and putting your creative talents to work, creating new objects from items you already own is a great way to combat overconsumption.
Coffee table made from pallets, bedside table made from old vinyl, plastic chair transformed into a contemporary garden table, the homemade trend continues to gain followers. The latest creation that fans of fancy decor are going crazy for? The side table made from foam noodles… Yes, the ones you use to float in the pool!
To make it, nothing could be simpler: you just need to choose a cylindrical element that will serve as the base of your DIY table, as this pinned tutorial by Berdine Shop on TikTok explains very well. You can use a trash can, a planter or even a wooden tube. After splitting your fries in two, cutting them to the right dimensions and then arranging them slightly at an angle for a more lively effect, create the top of your table with a piece of thick cardboard. To do this, mark out the contours of the table with a felt-tip pen, which should form a flower, then cut the cardboard with a cutter following the lines. Glue it to your structure.
Next, start by covering the table top with filler and then do the same on all the fries surrounding the cylindrical element. For a neat application, do not hesitate to do it with your fingers, more precise than a spatula, while obviously making sure to protect them with plastic gloves. Wait for the product to dry and then sand the entire surface for a cleaner result.
And finally, let’s paint! Pink, yellow, blue: it’s up to you to choose the color that will best match the rest of your decor. So, what do you think of this DIY side table?
