How to turn a wok into a side table.

By DIY Maven

Wok Table and Broadway

Some projects make me smile. This is one of them. A wok. Turned into a side table. What next? as my mother would say. If you have the materials on hand, you could put one together in about 5 minutes. If not, I'd keep my eyes peeled for them at your next rummage sale/Good Will excursion.

Turn vintage suitcases into side tables.

By DIY Maven

You know how sometimes you see an idea on the internets and think, ‘of course!’? Well...this is one of those times. Not only do these old suitcases make adorable and interesting side tables, they also provide storage for magazines, books, remotes and all that other flotsam and jetsam that  clutter our lives.

Origami Side Table

By DIY Maven

This side table by Mio Culture was inspired by its namesake. ‘Composed of two laser-cut and slotted sheets of steel, the Origami tables ship flat and require no tools or hardware to assemble. One sheet is the negative of the other, which eliminates waste during production and gives the tables a balanced, yet dynamic, form. The petal-like surfaces are sturdy and spacious, making a practical and sculptural side table, night stand or plant stand.’ » READ MORE

The Illusion Table

By DIY Maven

New from Unica Home is John Brauer’s Illusion Table in ‘white ice’. Simple in design but dramatic in effect, the table ‘takes the form of a sheet that has been draped on a cylinder.’ It’s made of .12" PMMA, and can hold 25 lbs. Measuring 18"h x 16"d, the table is available in either the original transparent or the re-introduced ‘white ice’. To really set it off, you can opt for the light clip ($50).

Recycled Wine Barrel Side Table

By DIY Maven

This sweet side table was made from a recycled white oak wine barrel. Wine barrels are usually scrapped after a few years of use. Such a waste, considering this hand-made re-incarnation. Available through Uncommon Goods for a rather reasonable $350 each.
