Tiktoker Alyx (@simplyalchemy) wanted a table like this, but she made it clear that she was not ready to part with $3,000 for it. And in this economy, who could blame her?
Alyx decided to get creative and make the table herself. It looks incredible! It almost makes me want to pause Netflix, put my wine down, and try to make this myself (I said ALMOST).

How did she make it?
First, Alyx used a door as the base and placed pieces of wood as a reference to the design. She then used wood glue to secure the wood on the door. After re-enforcing the wood with nails, she added wood filler to the smooth over any crevices or small holes.
Alyx then cut off the excess wood and sanded the entire table. She followed it up with pre-stain, wood finish, and color wash, respectively. Lastly, polyurethane was applied on the finished table.
Very impressive piece!
