Sprucing Up a TV Stand

Total Time: 1 hour

Yield: 1

Supplies:

• 1 6 piece of foam board
• 1 14" piece of glass
• 1 white wicker basket
• 3 pretties for the shelf

Steps:

1. I had all that I needed to complete this little project. So if you ever run across this problem, look around for things you probably have. I took all the stuff out of the bottom of the wicker.

 
2. Then I made sure the glass would be big enough for the support pieces, having to use it vertically. At first I wished it had gone across the other way, but now I am glad it didn't. This allowed me to put some yarn in the bottom and still get it out easily.

3. Then I measured the width for the foam board shelf and it was the right width, just too long. A steak knife works great for this if you don't have a box cutter.

 

 
4. Once the little foam board shelf was in, I found some pretties that I had that were small enough to fit.

 
5. With the wicker basket full of yarn I put that on the glass and some yarn in the space underneath it.

6. With another longer wicker basket to wedge (wink wink) into the front, all it needed was a nice rug. N-JOY!!

I recently purchased a larger TV and since my son placed it on the wall I had an 'empty' TV stand below that needed upgrading so I did something like this also.
Great minds think alike?
Maybe - but why continue to look at 'clutter' when more pleasant looking things are just in hiding somewhere in a box or drawer?
