DIY Magazine Stool
10 Aug 2011
Someone in my house hoards magazines. When she left for college a few years ago, I found magazines in every nook and cranny of her room.
Oops, just outted her…Hope you are OK with that, Sweetie?
Since the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree in my nest, I will take total responsibility for the magazine-stockpiling gene. I’ll also foot the blame for being the enabler – I did not punish her when she stole my Vogues… Sorry hon!
Can you tell the parental guilt is just killing me?
Anyway, when I stumble across an ingeniously designed product that screams out DIY PROJECT, I just have to share. This is another one of those easy inspired ideas, like the felted sleeve cozy. This stool may even help you make less trips to the recycling center!
DIY Magazine Stool
You’ll need two extra-large leather straps or belts. They should be adjustable to make it easy to sneak a few mags into your collection. Scrap wood for the base and a magazine-sized cushion. That’s it.
Don’t want to make one? Then you can fork over the $185 here.
