To make your very own toy box, you will need an old storage bin, fabric or wrapping paper, rope, Mod Podge, hot glue, lock nuts, and decorative fence caps as an alternative to expensive furniture legs.
Begin by using a sponge to brush Mod Podge on the bin. Attach the fabric using the hot glue where necessary. Once your fabric is in place, attach the legs by drilling a hole and screwing them in tight. Top the screws with lock nuts in order to protect your children from hurting themselves on the exposed screws.
You can use rope, burlap, and other materials in order to customize your new toy box. For Beca's complete instructions, visit Creative Dominican.
Toy boxes aren't the only ways you can give old storage bins new lives. For moms who work from home, use gold spray paint to give plain plastic storage a sleek, elegant and professional look. Similar to the method on Creative Dominican, Woman's Day suggests using cotton fabric to jazz up your storage bins.
