Craft Crate Console Table (for Under $100!)

I built this piece of furniture. It might not be the most glorious piece of furniture to ever grace the earth, but I built it all by myself. And you can too.
We really needed something that wasn’t super obtrusive sticking out under our tv, because we only have a few feet of space between the bed and the wall. Previously there was a 5 year old Target bookcase there and it just wasn’t doing it.
2 stained craft crates attached to a DIY wood base


Here’s the materials list for this DIY Craft Crate console table:


- Craft crates (duh…). I used two, but you can use however many you want for the length of table you need


- Hobby board. I used this to mount the craft crates on


- (4) 21 inch parsons legs and (4) heavy duty top plates


- (2) 2×2’s


- Spraypaint, stain, primer of your choice (I used Zinsser spray primer, Rustoleum’s Oil Rubbed Bronze spray paint, and Minwax stain cloths)
Slim enough to leave lots of walking room!


And as far as tools/supplies go:


- Power drill and impact driver


- Clamps


- Wood screws


- Wood filler


- Gorilla Glue


- At least a jigsaw (I used a miter saw to make some of my cuts easier, and a circular saw would have been handy too but I don’t have one)
