On our website (and in some stores), you can find unfinished wooden storage crates that are often handy for out-of-sight storage, like in a garage. But their unstained finish may not make them a great storage option for your living room. With a bit of stain and some cabinet pulls, however, we were able to customize a DIY wooden storage crate to give it a more finished look.
For this project, you’ll need the following supplies:
- Small wooden storage crate
- Wood stain
- Cabinet pulls
- Putty knife
- Several varying grits of sandpaper or sanding blocks
- Wood filler
- Shims, paint stirrers, or scrap wood
- Staining pads
- Drill
- Screwdriver
