Delighted with her DIY creation, Naeva took to social media to show off how she made it, leaving many open-mouthed.
She wrote: “DIY coffee table with IKEA serving dishes.”
In the short clip shared online, we saw Naeva demonstrate the step-by-step process of how she made her beautiful table.
For starters, Naeva stopped using nails glue, which you can get for just £3.99 from Screwfix, to stick together serving dishes, which she bought from IKEA for £15 each.
After the DIYer made three balls from six serving bowls, she used Johnstone's matte paint in the shade of Johnstone's seashell to paint the bamboo bowls.
If you fancy getting your hands on this paint, you can order it now from Amazon for just £17.99.
After the bowls were painted and dried, she placed them on the floor and placed a large piece of glass on top, creating a beautiful coffee table.
We think the table looks fantastic and Naeva clearly enjoyed making it, as she later claimed: “It was so therapeutic too.”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @naeevasshas clearly left many jaws dropping as it quickly racked up 72,000 views in just six days.
Social media users were left amazed at the DIY coffee table, with many taking to the comments to express their views.
One person said: “As an interior designer I say 10/10.”
Another said: “This is beautiful!!! I absolutely love this!”
A third commented: “How creative! It turned out so well.”
At the same time, someone else asked, “Where did you get the glass?!”
To this, the DIY fan explained: “It's from Facebook Marketplace.
“I just typed in 'round dining table' and so many came up. For reference, it is 100 cm.
“The glass top was removable, so you could just lift it off.”
Meanwhile, someone else wondered, “I love this, but did you glue the glass?”
In response, Naeva explained: “No, I didn't. It is surprisingly sturdy.
“I didn't want to add glue because you would see it through the glass.”
