It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

These DIYers Took An Empty Corner And Made It The Most Sought After Spot At The House!

They were thinking much bigger.  Much comfy-er.  They decided to make something really special and they did.

Here is how they did it over at apprenticeextrovert:

1. we built a frame to the size we wanted attaching it to our existing deck flooring as we went
2. we screwed on our reclaimed hardwood to hide the frame

3. we cut chipboard to fit on the top of the frame
4. we attached foam to the chipboard and upholstered with an old sheet
5. we made a washable, removable slipcover in our chosen fabric.

VOILA!
