Books are always around my favorite chair.
I read a devotional and my bible every day, as well as writing in a journal. There are also notebooks for writing and sketching new project ideas, always a
These favorite things of mine are scattered about, and at times, a bit of a mess on the floor.

I found this crate at the thrift store for $5.00.
You can find new ones at Michael’s for $10.00, sometimes on sale for $8.00. Home Depot also carries, not sure for how much.

The crate was in good shape except for a few very small splits in the wood.
My plan was to paint the crate and add legs.
I chose hairpin legs to lift the crate up off the floor.
Most types of wood legs would also work.

I bought the four legs on Amazon for $16.00.
When completed, the crate was a perfect space for my books.

Love it!
So simple, just spray painted, and added legs.

It also serves as a side table next to my chair, a great spot for my coffee and glasses.

If you are on a budget, two would make inexpensive night tables or side tables next to a sofa.
A project completed in one day!
It’s clean, and stylish too!
A bit of a modern farmhouse look.
Thank you for letting me share this fun project today.
The mess about my favorite chair, gone!
Thank goodness!
Hugs and love, till next time.
