DIY Shelves/Nightstand

Need some extra "shelves" and maybe an extra "table" or "nightstand" in your room? Then look no more...we have a cheap, cute, solution for your room!


What you need:

-Locker Crates
-Acrylic Paint (optional)
-Table Cloth (optional) (or really any fabric)


The locker crates I suggest are kind of like this:


(This picture is not mine...it's from the internet. Thank You)


If you buy TWO of these, you can easily just stack them on each other.

There you have two shelves already...so stock them up!


I know that for some people, this might not be exactly "appealing" or "cute". Not to fear...we have other solutions.


1) Paint.

You can buy some ordinary acrylic paint, and paint your locker crates any color or design.

The locker crates I used for originally blue...and they did not match anything in my room at all. So I went ahead and just painted them purple to match everything.

If you love art, and are a good artist, you can also paint designs and things like that...to make it more personalized!



2) Table Cloth (or any fabric)


Or you can just get a table cloth, and simply put it on your locker crates (to cover the holes maybe?). It doesn't have to be a specific tablecloth, any fabric will work!


And there you go! Simple, quick, and you have two shelves AND a nightstand/super small table(:

Hope this helps!
