grab a 3 cube

storage

organizer from Walmart and start assembling it according to the instructions, cut out some Pooler foam and then start stapling some fabric with layers of batting to the top of the organizer, cut off the excess material and then staple the material to the sides. From the organizer add the upholstery foam and place the material on top of the foam. Be sure to wrap and staple the material around the foam on the other side of the organizer. Staple all the corners and sides tightly and lastly staple the bottom of the sides I bought a cheap woven rug at Ikea.

I started by taking the containers out of

their

storage

area and I'm going to lay the rug horizontally and then place the container on top to measure how much fabric I need to hold the rug. to the container I'm going to use hot glue so I'm going to glue it to the back so that the handle part of the container is actually on the back and this fabric will be on the other side to wrap those sides of the rug around and secure it to the sides. Now I'm going to add a handle to this container, so I'm going to make a hole in the handle, one on each side, and stick the Brad through a hole through the mat and through the storage container and then I'll push the Brad through. through and then into the storage container.

I'm going to push both ends of the Brad down to secure it in place. My daughter bought a big TV and once she knew it. Her old TV stand was too small, all we really needed for this project was some molding and an unfinished wood top. I placed the board on top of the support and measured it to center it

using

my miter saw. I cut the molding to size. Preh hammered finishing nails. On the molding I added wood glue to the edge of the board and nailed the molding into place. I continued measuring glue and nailed the molding to all three sides of the board to secure the board to the old bracket.

I pre-drilled and added screws to the top, then filled the holes with wood filler. I also filled the edges with wood filler. Once the wood filler was dry, I sanded it smooth. I applied a coat of dark stain with polyurethane and let it dry and then sanded it fine. sandpaper to ensure that the stand does not fall. I bought furniture straps. I measured and screwed one end of the strap to the TV mount, then measured and screwed the other end to the wall. Now the TV fits perfectly and my daughter can still use it. old bracket I bought the three cube storage unit and set it up in 10 minutes.

Now for the bed frame I painted 2 pieces of 1X 12 pine to use on the sides of the frame. I needed something to elevate the mattress so I cut with 2x4's. to the proper size and used a Craig jig to make two U legs. I placed them at the head of the bed and in the middle of the bed I placed a piece of 3/4 plywood on top of the U legs and screwed them to the plywood. I placed a storage unit at the foot of the bed and screwed it to the plywood. The painted 1X 12s were attached to the U-legs

using

Brads.

I then placed a 1 by two next to the plywood on top, hung the 1X 12's and nailed them. instead I then placed a 1x6 on top to hide the seam at the foot of the bed, the storage unit was not as wide as the actual bed and there were gaps on both sides now that the bed frame was complete it was time to make the header
