I spend a lot of evening curled up in my favorite chair and I’ve long been looking for a little table to sidle up to it. So far I haven’t been able to find something that can hold both books and knitting and still provide a place to set a cup of coffee so I was so thrilled when I tried out this crate. The style pairs nicely with almost any style of chair and the deep interior has plenty of room for a big bin for yarn or sewing as well as plenty of space for a stack of books to be read. Perfect!

Difficulty level: Beginner
Time required: Less than five minutes

Things you need:
Vintage folding crate

Set the crate on end, next to your favorite chair. Fill the inside with a bin large enough to hold whatever is your hobby of choice and stack a few books on top or to the side. Leave the top free for your book of the moment and a nice hot cup of tea or coffee and settle in for the night!
