One thing is for sure, with a little imagination, the smallest DIY item can be transformed into a great decorative object. You still need to know how to do it, but you’ll see that it’s not so difficult!
Strong and flexible, waterproof and durable, the plumber’s accessory that interests us today is more often used in technical rooms than in a living room, but you will see that with a little elbow grease and ideas, it is easy to divert.
It is commonly used to supply water to sinks and dishwashers, but also to connect washbasins, toilets, baths and showers. In a utility room, it connects washing machines and utility sinks and is also found in central heating systems, including radiators and underfloor heating systems.
We are therefore more used to finding this kind of item in the aisles of DIY stores, which is where the content creator who made this DIY got her hands on hers, than in carefully decorated living rooms. And yet, Margaux aka @margauxseydouxx on TikTok was inspired by current trends to imagine a spiral table to die for.
With an MDF board, a moss green spray paint, another for the undercoat – optional because a good sandpaper is enough – a saw, a jigsaw and a multilayer tube, the famous plumber’s accessory, discover how to bring it to life.
Start by shaping the foot by twisting the multi-layer tube on itself. Once the desired height is reached, cut it with a handsaw and sand it with sandpaper or spray it with a primer spray. You can then paint or spray it in the color you want. Using a frying pan or anything you have at hand as a template, transfer the desired shape of the tray onto the MDF board using a pencil, adapt it as needed, you don’t have to draw something regular.
Then cut out the future top of your spiral table using a jigsaw. Sand the edges and paint the same color as the base. All you have to do is attach the top to the spiral leg with a glue gun, press firmly and let it dry. And now you have a 100% homemade decorative table!
