"I love my essential oils and use them every day. This DIY Facial Serum really does work. I have been using it for about 3 months months now and it has helped heal my skin. My fine lines look smoother and some are gone! You only need a few drops at a time and a bottle of this mixture will last. Love this, thank you for sharing this facial serum recipe."

"I have always wanted to put a door organizer in my kitchen but I do not like the plastic ones. This wood version is a great one and I like that you can make it to size you want and paint too. This can even be used under bathroom sinks or craft room. Super easy to make too."

"Do you hate to throw out those old fans that do not work and need some storage baskets in a craft room or garage then here is a very inexpensive one. I would paint it and you can even use an odd hanger from a planter. You can do 1,2,3 or whatever amount of baskets you need. Neat idea."

"This outdoor bench to put on the deck is a great alternitive then the store bought pieces. I have wanted somrthing like this because it uses the space wisley and everyone can sit together, You can make it all around the deck or just a little and you can control that. I love that it slants on the top. I would make some pretty cushions and pillows to put on the bench too."

From the blogger: "This has to be one of the best IKEA hacks ever. Combined an IKEA crate with some IKEA casters and a pair of jeans to create this awesome ottoman. Not only is this a nifty piece of furniture with some super handy storage, but it can be personalized, too. You can stencil your family name on the side of the crate. This, combined with the upholstered denim seat, add to the lovely vintage industrial farmhouse look. This killer combination of extra seating and storage in one would look great in any den or teen bedroom as well as the main living room."

A few years ago I bought a lovely old crate with a view to finding a good use for it one day. Well it finally seems that the day finally arrived. I will use some hand designed mud cloth (a project elsewhere on this site) for the upholstery and it is going to be really good.

I like this DIY Denim IKEA Crate Footstool with Storage idea. I'm thinking of doing this project with a old milk crate I bought at a flea market. I have sanded down the crate and haven't done anything with it. This would work will and I'll have a nice storage/foot stool for my family room. I have a enough wood stain left over from doing the wood trim in my family room so now I can have a matching footstool. Thank you so much for sharing this free DIY idea that I'll be doing.

Very practical and creative idea for a foot stool! I love that it has caster wheels which makes it so nice to move around! Using denim is a good choice because it wears so well, but I could see the cushion done in any type of canvas fabric, or even fabric that is covered in an iron on protective vinyl which I have used successfully on bar stools. Great project!
