I found an old crab pot (very large blue speckled pot) in our "donation station". I grabbed it for this very thing.
While watching TV and working on cat mats, the scrap mats I make for the local cat rescue center, I needed to put my feet up. This large pot gave me not only a free thing to recycle, but space inside for the yarn, some books, my planner and more.
It's a time intensive project, but I will also tell you how to shorten that time.

Very clever. I love it!
That's cute! I love it, Sandi :)
I love this idea! I'm looking out now for a covered pot or similar item to turn into a footstool like yours. I should be putting my feet up, as much as possible, and don't have room for a regular hassock.
I found it and originally wanted to plant things in it for my balcony. But I can't make anything grow but mold...so there you go!! Here is another idea that people have been doing for a while now. If the link doesn't work, google "making a foot stool from tin cans" and you will get hundreds of ideas.
