Making Furniture with No Tools! | DIY Rustic Farmhouse Side Table

by doitonadime Filed Under: Decor & Furniture, DIY Projects, Money Saving

You asked, so here it is! This is one of my favorite crate projects: an easy rustic, farmhouse-inspired end table. I love crate DIY projects. They can be made very quickly with no tools, and it’s the perfect way to organize any room. This DIY could be used as a side table, in a bathroom, in a bedroom as an end table, or even as lego organization (like it is here…ha!) I hope you enjoy! I have more farmhouse ideas coming soon so stay tuned!

    I just stumbled upon your posts on Pinterest, then went to YouTube. I’m liking what I’m seeing so far! This stuff is right up my alley! The rustic side table is awesome!! I think I’ll make it one more crate bigger and use it for storing our library books…each of my three kids having their own shelf.

    Could you do a kitchen island tutorial? You’d make my day! ?
