Crissie from The Crafted Maker created the most beautiful DIY version of an Arhaus-inspired end table, and I am in love to say the least!
She was inspired by a gorgeous $500 Arhaus table but pulled off her DIY version for way less.
Crissie used 2×2 boards for the base and totally affordable materials from a home improvement store.
She designed the base with angled cuts to mimic the high-end designer look, and it turned out SO good.
I love how she finished the top with stain and a little distressing to give it that rustic, Restoration Hardware vibe.
Plus, she shared all the measurements and a full cut list so it’s super easy to follow along!
Crissie even used pocket holes to assemble everything, so it’s sturdy and beginner-friendly.
Here’s Crissie to show you exactly how to build this designer-look table without the designer price tag!

What DIY’ers Are Saying
Pre-Assembly Finishing
A popular tip suggests staining or painting all pieces before assembly to avoid difficult touch-ups later.
Importance of Hole Alignment During Drilling
Several commenters also recommend carefully aligning the holes for bolts during the drilling step to ensure easier assembly and a more professional finish.
Spray Paint and Protective Coating
People note that spray painting the hardware adds a high-end look, but advise using a protective clear coat to prevent chipping during assembly.
