Functional Storage Bins
by
Sunita P
(IC: homeowner)
These mobile storage bins are multi functional. Of course we use them for storage but they are also used for seating.
*Project Steps:
I found cubbies (5) on sale and put them together. I covered plywood with fabric and added wheels to attach to the bottom. Another piece of plywood was attached to sponge and fabric to form a lid to sit on. The lids are removable so we can take them to the fireplace or simply turn them over to act as a table. I used multi colored fabric for fun.
Advice:
I looked in stores for something similar. I found that I could make them for a lot less and exactly the way I wanted them. I love that they are separate to stay organized.
Materials:
5 Wooden Cubbies - $0.00
20 Wheels - $0.00
Plywood - $0.00
Fabric - $0.00
Sponge - $0.00
