My obsession for all things clear goes further than jewelry, bags and clothes. Our house is also filled with clear objects; from chairs, to glass containers, lamps and now also this side table I made as a DIY for NSMBL.
What you'll need is a piece of perspex of 5mm thickness, a heat blower gun (the kind that is used to remove paint from wood) and a few pieces of tape. Start out by determining the measurements of your table, though the bigger the table, the thicker the perspex needs to be. I used a panel of perspex of 120cm x 50cm and decided to make the side table 25cm in height, marked it with bits of tape and bended it into shape.
To bend the sides of your table, lay the perspex on a right, heat proof edge, like for example the kitchen counter. Secure the panel of perspex with clamps or ask someone to hold it for you.
Blow hot air across the edge you want to bend, close to the plastic for about four minutes. Now the perspex should be soft enough to bend. You could bend it all the way and make a sharp 90 degrees angle, or like me, bend it a little less so that the sides are slightly inclined. That's it! You've got a clear side table in under 30 minutes.
Update: though the plastic doesn't smell when heating it, the fumes can be extremely toxic. Be sure to wear a mouth mask and keep the area well ventilated.

You are the clear stuff queen! Inspiring as always! xx
wow dit is echt een super goed idee!
En de grootste grap is dat mijn ouders zo'n soort tafel hebben (maar dan wat groter) maar dan van een of andere dure designer van de bijenkorf! Ohjah en hij is van glas, maar dat verschil zie je niet als ik je foto's zo bekijk. Anyhow: super goede DIY!
Are you a model?
Genius!
Btw, waar haal je zo'n plaat vandaan?
Great! Nobody would think it's self-made.
You never cease to amaze with your incredible taste, such an inspiration! Love, love, love this!

Incredibly gorgeous and so very chic
I love it!
Great! I honestly would never attempt to make something like that because I wouldn't know where to start and how. Who would have thought it would have been so simple and easy.
is there anything you don't think of. you are honestly so clever, x
I cant believe you did it yourself! This is amazing!

I absolutely love your DIYs. I would keep this in mine when I have a place of my own. :)

Ja ik ga dit zeker proberen!
Ik moet zoiets nog hebben en wat is leuker om het zelf te maken.
OK Ivania, business plan here: you'd start your line of DIY "LOVE AESTHETICS BY IVANIA CARPIO" jewelry and clothing, then move into furniture and home furnishings like rick owens and armani casa, this is soooo your niche... It's SET AND DONE! you rock!

anyway, I wanted to say that you absolutely made my day by commenting, I could hardly believe it when I saw the comment waiting for approval!because i have been reading your blog for ages and really admiring your unique sense of style! plus I keep seeing you in magazines these days (for example in the newest company mag!) so thanks a lot for really making my day :)
i actually had to say it out loud a few times to myself haha i am that pathetic sometimes :D God bless you xx
What a great idea!! I really looove it!
If clear also means spotless with no dust, I'm pretty confident that I should adopt your style (probably even starting from cleaning my room) and let my crib have a major face lift. My place is a nightmare from the 3rd world war.

Amazing! Love this idea.
Cleaning North Hillingdon List all the cleaning tasks that need to be accomplished.
Arrange them by priority, and determine their frequency. Some cleaning tasks need to be done every day, while others, such as carpet cleaning, might be done more rarely (once or twice per year).
Cleaners Parsons Green suggest breaking the big tasks into smaller ones in order to make them easier.
