My Christmas present to the household

I’ve been intending to get a TV stand (and someday a new TV) basically since I moved to Oregon. In the meantime the tiny, cheap-o TV was sitting on the floor all this time. I never found anything I liked for a stand, which was also well built and also not really expensive.
Saturday I decided to build one from an IKEA table top and simple poplar from Home Depot. All told it is extremely strong, reasonably built for my first real go at cabinetry/furniture making, and it cost about $250 in parts. I spent Saturday planning/buying, Sunday cutting/joining and Monday and Tuesday evenings on joining. Last night I finished it up.
Having a Kreg pocket hole set up made this work really well.
Now I just need to decide how to paint or finish it. Probably go for a reddish stain to mimic the cherry in the living room.
