DIY cocktail table

I’ve been experimenting with some new tools lately, and I’m excited to share this cute little DIY cocktail table I built!

For this project, I used my Kreg Trim Router and my Trim Router Edge Guide to create perfect circles for the top and bottom of the table.

The edge guide makes it effortless to cut circles from 3 1/2″ to 15″ in diameter, and they make a circle guide too if you want larger circles than the edge guide allows.

I added a flat marble tray that I found on Amazon for the tabletop, which I attached using construction adhesive. I love the look of wood and marble together.

For an added design detail, I used peel and stick metal trim around each end of the table base. The adhesive wasn’t strong enough so I added construction adhesive and then reinforced it with my crown stapler at the seam. It’s visible if you look close, but I just use that as the back of the table and you can’t see it from the front.

This was such a fun project and I can’t wait to play around with the edge guide even more!
