Make a DIY Marble Kitchen Pedestal

Looking to add a touch of sophistication to your kitchen without breaking the bank? Look no further than this DIY marble kitchen pedestal tutorial. Not only is it a practical solution for storing kitchen essentials like hand soap, lotion, and scrub brushes, but it also adds an elegant flair to your countertop decor. The best part? It takes just five minutes to create! With only three supplies needed— a 12×4 marble tile, two pieces of 12-inch long marble trim, and adhesive— you can easily elevate your kitchen space. I first saw an idea similar to this on Tik Tok and I am not sure who was the original creator.

Choosing the Right Adhesive

When it comes to choosing the right adhesive for your DIY project, quality matters. That’s why I opted for Loctite Power Grab Ultimate interior/exterior adhesive. This versatile adhesive is perfect for all kinds of DIY projects, including this marble pedestal. With its high strength and compatibility with different temperatures ranging from 10 to 100 degrees, you can trust that your pedestal will stay securely in place. Plus, its ability to adhere to various surfaces, including marble, ensures a durable bond that will last for years to come.

Assembling Your Marble Pedestal

Now, onto the fun part— assembling your marble pedestal! Begin by cleaning the marble pieces and ensuring they are completely dry. Next, turn the marble tile upside down and line up the marble trim pieces with the edges of the tile so they are flush. Apply a line of Loctite adhesive on the flat side of each marble trim piece, then place a piece of trim on each side of the tile. Press down firmly to adhere the pieces together, and allow the glue to cure for 12 hours.

Adding the Finishing Touches

Once the glue has set, it’s time to add the finishing touches. I opted for beautiful glass containers with gold pumps for my lotion and soap, which not only add a touch of luxury but also complement the marble aesthetic perfectly. After affixing the labels to the bottles to ensure uniformity in height, I placed them side-by-side on the pedestal. Additionally, I included a small dish with a scrub brush for added functionality and visual appeal.

Exploring Other Uses

But the versatility of this marble pedestal doesn’t end there. Beyond the kitchen, there are countless ways to incorporate it into your home decor. Consider placing it by your stove to hold oils and vinegars, on a bathroom counter for toiletries, on a nightstand with lotion and tissues, or even on a desk to organize desk utensils alongside a small plant. The possibilities are endless, and I’d love to hear where you would use this pedestal in your own home!

Supply List:

With just a few simple supplies and minimal effort, you can create a stunning marble kitchen pedestal that not only serves a practical purpose but also enhances the aesthetic appeal of your space. So why wait? Let’s get crafting and elevate your kitchen today!

Kitchen Renovation on a Budget

This was my 1905 cottage and I loved the way the kitchen turned out. If you go to that post you can see the before and after pictures. When I was remodeling the kitchen, I scraped layers of old linoleum and glue and discovered the original floors. It was so fun bringing this old home to life!

Choosing Faucets for our 1891 Kitchen Remodel

When we did our remodel, I really focused on finding materials to update our home but also retained the charm.

Adding a Butler’s Pantry to the Back of the Kitchen

This is my summer home tour, but I love the way our back pantry turned out. When we moved in, this room behind our kitchen held a giant sauna. We moved the laundry room from the basement upstairs and created a dual room – one side is our laundry room and the other is a pantry with a baking station. I found some vintage doors which I stripped down to create a wall between the spaces which blocks the sound of the washer and dryer but also lets light flow from each room!
