Here at LivnFresh, we know that you can brighten up any Michigan home with the right DIY furniture. Right now, live-edge resin river tables are some of the most sought after furniture pieces out there. And today we will teach you how to make one on your own!
With careful planning and delicate execution, experienced woodworkers and DIY’ers will surely be able to make a lovely new resin-filled table. This guide covers the basics of making your own live-edge resin-filled table to give you an idea of how it usually goes.
Gather Your Tools and Materials
You will need a few materials for this project, namely: wood, translucent tinting pigments, tape, polypropylene sheet, polishing compound, and of course, some clear epoxy resin. Of course, you will also need some more tools and safety equipment to make sure the process goes as smoothly as possible.
Before you get to work, make sure the environment you are in is a dry, heated space all throughout the process. The resin also needs to be at room temperature. If it’s delivered cold or it’s been in the garage for some time, you will have to raise the temperature to 20°C before use. Damp or cold conditions may affect the end result.
Prepare the Wood
When choosing your wood, you need to make sure that the wood is seasoned, dry, and as flat as possible. The style and type depend on your personal preference—you can get creative here. But waney-edges work best for this type of project. Pro tip: you can ask your supplier to cut the wood down to the correct size and depth or cut it in half if you want to do a central river channel.
Chisel out the bark and then remove any loose material with abrasive paper. Next, check for cracks and gaps on the top and bottom of the pieces of wood. Seal them in by filling them with resin. Use tape to seal the cracks and gaps to prevent the resin from running out. Check on it every now and then and top up the resin if some were absorbed by the wood.
When the resin is fully cured, use abrasives to level off the surface, removing any high spots. You want to leave a keyed surface so a coarse abrasive is ideal.
Create a Container
Position your slabs of wood so you can make a container around the whole table slab—it will support the resin whilst pouring and curing the river. Begin with a flat sheet, which will make a baseboard to work upon.
Use the polypropylene sheet to create a base and side barriers to create a container around the wood. Make the base 8cm larger than the table to allow for side barriers. Then use a hot-melt glue gun and run a bead of glue all around the base and side barrier to making sure the container is water-tight.
If you need to test if it is watertight, just make sure you dry the container thoroughly afterward.
Add the Resin!
Whether you color the resin or not depends on your personal taste. Lots of DIY’ers use glow powders, metallic pigments, solid colors, etc. Try experimenting on a small amount of resin with any effect you want to achieve before applying it to your table. You can also leave it clear, and the resin will look good too. Use a blue translucent tinting pigment if you want to emphasize that watery effect for your river table.
Once you’ve chosen the right style, carefully pour the resin into the container. Then add the correct amount of hardener and mix thoroughly. Make sure the resin completely covers the whole base area. Aim to slightly overfill the river channel, then leave the resin to fully cure.
Place the wood planks back into the correct position on top of the resin. Use a brush to seal the edge and top surface with the resin including all the knots, splits, and cracks. Use a heat gun or hairdryer on medium heat to remove any bubbles.
Finishing Touches
To finish off the table you will need to add the legs and seal the wood.
It is important that you do this prior to polishing the resin river as the polishing compound may mark the wood if it’s not protected. To polish the resin you will need a hand-held polisher and a high-quality polishing compound. This will help you achieve a high gloss finish.

Edouard Manet’s Execution of the Emperor Maximilian (1867) portrays the dramatic moment of Maximilian’s execution alongside generals Miguel Miramón and Tomás Mejía, ordered by Benito Juárez. Breaking convention, Manet depicted this contemporary political event on a monumental scale, usually reserved for mythological or historical scenes. The composition, inspired by Francisco Goya’s “Third of May 1808,” emphasizes the immediacy of the tragic event through dynamic and unresolved brushwork. This painting is the earliest version of several Manet created, reflecting his ideological opposition to Napoleon III’s intervention in Mexico. The painting was acquired by Frank Gair Macomber in 1909, likely upon Mary Cassatt’s recommendation, and gifted to the MFA in 1930.
The Museum of Fine Arts was founded in 1870 and relocated to its current neoclassical building designed by architect Guy Lowell at 465 Huntington Avenue in 1909. The museum's vast collection spans over 500,000 works of art, with highlights including ancient Egyptian artifacts, 18th- and 19th-century American art, French Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces, and a renowned collection of Asian art. Originally located in a Gothic Revival building in Copley Square, much of the museum’s early collection came from the Boston Athenaeum Art Gallery. Over the years, the museum expanded significantly, adding the Decorative Arts Wing in 1968, the Norman Jean Calderwood Garden Court and Terrace in 1997, and a modern Americas Wing in the mid-2000s designed by Foster and Partners.

The scene of the crime, really. Upon our return from Eastbourne we see Northumberland blocked off by police tape. An officer seeing my camera tersely instructs us to "move along". It might be an accident? What happened, nobody knows, or they are not saying. Tellingly a little white tent in front of the Nigerian Embassy immediately across the street from our hotel is the center of interest of the police. The police erect these tents to cover homicide victims. They are taking measurements, and many pictures. We canvas the desk clerk who bluntly says that someone was shot, and probably killed in what was described as a an execution. Was it a murder? I don't know, it seems all the information was embargoed, so far, no media carried a trace of the story.
Delicate and intricate in its execution and rich in its symbolism, this small panel painting attributed to the workshop of Jan van Eyck depicts Saint Jerome, the fourth-century translator of the Bible, reading in his study.
According to legend, Jerome extracted a thorn from a lion's paw. The books and other objects seen here relate to the saint's intellectual pursuits and take on symbolic meanings. The hourglass is traditionally equated with the passage of time and human mortality. The glass bottle is undisturbed by the light passing through it just as the virginity of Mary was undisturbed by the Holy Spirit when she conceived Jesus. The jar labeled tyriaca (an antidote for snakebite) surmounted by a pomegranate (a symbol of the resurrection) refers to Christ as the savior of the world.
Based on the inscription on the folded letter on the table, it has been suggested that the figure of Saint Jerome is a disguised portrait of Cardinal Niccolò Albergati.
The tragic romance of Mary, Queen of Scots life inspired Victorian artist Robert Herdman. She is shown as a saintly figure. Her blood-red petticoat symbolises her martyrdom to the Catholic faith.
Robert Herdman was a Victorian artist specialising in portraiture and historical compositions - was born in Rottray near Blairgowrie in Perthshire. He lived mainly in Edinburgh and he died in 1888
This painting bequeathed by Adam Teacher, 1898 and is on display at the Glasgow Art Gallery & Museum in Scotland.

A frightening bit of history - there wer many of these illustrations as you climbed the stairs and many of them were positively horrific. Fun learning!

The Rieme-Oostakker Place of Execution is the place in the Ghent district of Oostakker where 66 resistance fighters were executed by the Naxi occupation force between February 8, 1943 and August 24, 1944.
This memory is also kept alive the 20 resistance fighters who were killed on the execution site at Rieme . That site was destroyed in 1998 during the construction of the Kluizendok of Ghent Port.
The executions were carried out in secret and the victims were buried anonymously. Some of the resistance fighters killed in Rieme was found in a mass grave in Hechtel.
Moreover, there were German soldiers and Belgian criminals also shot. Because of these circumstances, it is still unclear how many people were killed. After the Liberation the mass grave was uncovered in Oostakker. The victims were identified and buried in their hometowns.
The crosses on the ground thus have a symbolic meaning. Nevertheless, the execution place is a cemetery since in 1952 the remains of 15 decapitated West Flemish political prisoners were moved here from their graves in Munich.
On the grounds is a railway carriage which carried hundreds of Belgians to concentration camps in Germany and Poland. In 1966 the execution place gained the status of a protected landscape.
This poor girl was caught eating eggs and so we either had to put it in solitary confinement or kill it, and as it was a table breed we decided to kill it.
