“I saw a side table for $1500 but instead decided to make one for… $58,” Geneva explained. “Out of pavers from the landscaping department at Bunnings! Seriously, who would have thought? When I was growing up my parents always said I liked to look at things upside down, and yep, old habits die hard.

“This is one of my favourite projects to date and one that you so need to try. Travertine pavers and liquid nails. So easy! Note that this side table comes in at 56kg, so take care (and wear shoes) when moving it. You might also want to make it close to where you are going to use it! To add extra stability (if you have small kids etc) you should glue or screw some L brackets onto the underside at the back and screw those to the wall.”
