A home stylist has shared how she made an elegant stone side table for only $58 using two products from Bunnings Warehouse.
Brisbane DIY enthusiast Geneva Vanderzeil wanted a side table for her living room but noticed stone tables retailed for a minimum of $1500, so she decided to make one herself.
To make the stunning table, she used three pieces of travertine natural stove pavers and Selleys construction adhesive glue.
In photos shared on Instagram, the end result looked fantastic and encompassed a minimalistic design.

‘I have to admit, this one surprised even me, and was made completely on a whim,’ Geneva wrote.
‘Honestly, I love this project mainly because it was sooo easy and you can use travertine like this, actual tiles or really anything at all. It makes me want to get creative and experiment.’
To make the table, she glued the three thick pieces of travertine together using the adhesive glue and left it to set in place.
The design was inspired by a luxury $2,469 alternative from Fern Living.

According to the product description, travertine tile is ‘one of the most affordable options’ for natural stone tile and can be expected to last a long time.
This type of material is also easy to cut compared alternatives and offers a timeless, elegant look.
At Bunnings the product can be purchased for $18.32 and the Selleys glue is priced at $11.25 per 130g tube.
