My husband made shelves in our closets with these types of shelves. I found a warehouse that was selling these for 10 bucks new in the box, We purchased 6 of them and Taaa daaaa built in shelves in my walk in closet and all our other closets 😊 We topped it off with some trim pieces we have and they look like they came in the house this way ❤
Great deal!
You can’t sit on a Walmart organizer. It will break 🙄
Seriously!
A 5 year old sat on one, it broke. 😂
The engeneering of cubes as well as adding any supports of wood change your tensile strength.
I came here to say that too. Been there for my preschoolers. I thought it would be fine cause they’re so little, nope! Lasted about two weeks started to bend and weaken. Just not made for sitting. Although the reinforced thick wooded ones might hold up nicely.
Yeah they don't make it long, especially if you forget then have birthday party and theirs about 10, seven years old and they believe they are frogger in hoping, jumping, WWE takedowns. Best bet is old changing tables good to break down make a seat bench, you can also use the crib mattress believeme they are the best whether you have a old one or a friend getting rid of one. Take a old wore out sheets, older favorite blankets can be cut down, cloth hot glue, cloth tape, sewing machine or hand stich. You always want to be able to pull cloth off to wash, I use them easy stich on velcro for on and off. Older dressers are good, you can use the drawers for something else, can't go wrong finding older pieces at curbside, you can make anything from Lego table to a outside bench seat.
Just my opinion, I'm a wood collector though anytime someone has good dresser, shelves, wood doors at the curb or they going to toss out I stock pile in our old barn😂😂 what's best is when someone pulls out cabinets whether whole or pieces if it's older cupboards they are always sold wood, old farmhouses are the best. They work for hubby's car garage with the hoist, from tools to everything else. Anything whether metal shelves or cupboards, anything with wheels is worth taking the time to take them of and have a drawers full of them.
I have many of these sawdust storage shelves that saved me when I moved into 1/3 of the space I used to live in. They were quick, simple, and absorbed almost all of my work and kitchen things. The stacks of cardboard moving boxes were out of the middle of my living room. Now, for reuse, recycle and repurpose. Thank you
The ones from Ikea are much better
Those things are way too flimsy to use as a bench.
I used them to act as shelving on top of my built in wardrobes. Previously jumpers , blankets, handbags were up there but the stacks fell over or looked untidy. Now they look terrific neatly folded in the cubes. Very happy with my bargain shelving
Thanks to each person sharing their creative idea.
The 2nd idea with the Ikea rug and covering one side of the green box was ridiculous. Linen look boxes are available everywhere these days for well under $5. What a waste of time and money - not only that it looked trashy too.
Does it make you feel important going on the internet mocking and critiquing other people who are doing their best to improve their lives? You're not important being a jerk.
Pretty creative video. I really like the part about the totes at the end. Thanks so much for sharing.🥰🥰
Great video. Great ideas. Some are something I wouldn't do, but that is why we all are not created equal. I especially liked the covering of the fabric blocks.
How fun! People are so creative😊
Home & garden has that cube bench in Walmart, I bought 2. I bought the whole set of cubs storage 🤷🏾♀️❤
By the time you get through buying everything it's going to be a lot and wouldn't be my thing when I could buy something better
Exactly. Less expensive and better looking just to shop around.
But, if you already had some of these materials or found them cheap at a yard sale, you could repurpose them for less than you might be able to buy new.
Clever remakes of something mundane into something with lots more functional value & stylish aesthetic punch! Nice!!
It seems an awful lot of hardwork.
I'd just go to a furniture thrift shop.
By the time youve paid out for the cubes, power tool, extra pieces of wood and varnish you may as well purchase a solid second hand piece and polish it.
But I guess if you love mdf storage, and have plenty of time n money to spare, go right ahead!
❤
Some of these are ridiculous. If you have wood and all these tools, why do you need or want Wal-Mart cheap partical board shelves? Just make the shelves too
Absolutely waste of time ..why is my question just but a shelf instead of all that work sure not.much cheaper
My dearly departed mom taught us… if you don’t have anything nice to say STFU.
I'm glad that you are a builder,I on the other hand am not. Adding stuff is easier than building from scratch. Then I have to buy a bunch of tools. What you say is cheaper most certainly is not for everyone.
@cynthiacrawford1573 I'm talking about the video. Most of these examples show people using tools many people don't have, and raw supplies.
My point is, if you're going to cut and build something using tools, and boards as depicted in this video, you might as well build everything using quality wood instead of cheap partical board prefabricated junk.
Plywood is crazy expensive now. 😭
Okay, gluing wood to a plastic bin and then attaching casters is going to be how I make myself a triple mop bucket.
@tropezando That's a million dollar idea right there! 😉😂
I think this is the best one I’ve ever watched on this channel. I liked and if I had the talent, I’d do everyone. Good job to all the creators in this video.
Thank you for sharing.
I like the one that was turned into a bar area! That’s super cute!
There are a lot of things you can turn them into, howe ver, whatever you choose as your post purchase addition should be used to shore up the original cubes, which TEND to be flimsy. Wall shelves? I like! The bar cart idea; yes a good example of your improvement also making the project stronger.
Very Creative. I like the bed frame idea, however, she may want to drill some holes in the 3/4" plywood the mattress is laying on due to lack of air flow which can cause MOLD!
Why would there be mold without moisture? Honest question not trying to be facetious. Just thought mold only presented with moisture.
@@vivianevanparys9985 there is moisture in the room - I have a dehumidifier and it pulls at least half a litre (a pint) of liquid out of the air every day. That's just from us breathing, not to mention sweating etc.
Ah i see. Thank you! Never thought about that.
The mattress can pull air through the sides every time someone gets off of it. It is compressed when people sit or lie on it. And it gets fresh air all the time on all sides and the top. It won't mold.

Cube sets, make a fabulous raised vegetable beds. Obviously, if you want them to last for season 2, as I try to do n..I use an outdoor primer and or even engine spray , I additionally, a used/savedou a drill a few drainage and r raised bed soil and plant or seeds
quick cheap fix if you dont have a lot of money for quality furniture/pieces
Thank you for the great ideas, I will try them on the cube cabinet I have.
❤Omg. I'll be doing at least 2 of these i love for my bedroom and hallway.
Love all of these makes, saving video for later
1st 1 har 0:04 d to catch what she was doing for fabric bed stool! Going check out these ideas for where to purchase cubes! Ikea vs walmart!
I like all these projects. I have already made similar things in my home. Thank you for this channel. I subscribed.
Everybody's so creative!
I like all the ideas… great inspiration and most are easy to do
Everybody on here so freaking creative it's wonderful❤
Some smart folks!!!
Lots of great ideas, thanks!
Suggestion on last cool craft: How about spray painting the top any color you like? I love your fabric idea! A-1 ❤
You have to be really careful with spray paint and plastic...some types of spray paint have additive that actually can start to eat into the plastic, while others will just slough right off with basic, regular use levels of contact. There's specific ones that are made for plastics, but it's hard to say if it would stand up to the lid being frequently handled.
GREAT IDEAS, THANK YOU😊😊😊😊😊😊
Some great ideas!💜
Some great ideas.
Love all of these DIYs ideas. Would add my own splash to the plastic container ones to make them more subtle
Great ideas!🥰🥰
❤️❤️Great Ideas!
Can you tell me what kind of wheel you put on the bench? I have an 8 cube kallax unit and I would love to be able to put wheels on it. Thanks for the ideas.
Couldn't be faffed to do any of this.
These are some really creative ideas 👏😊
I used them for open cabinets in a utility kitchen
I like Ikea much better than Wal Mart
I wish I was that creative!
I love how people take a positive situation and find something wrong, just negative I guess
This was great! would love to add wheels to ours. Do you know where I can find ones like the ones in the video?
Brilliant work ❤❤❤
TV stand thank j could use this idea
I like this kind of easy storage ideas but the fact is cubes vertical or horizontal get lots of dust. Difficult maintenance for the cubes and for the objects that are in them.
Walmart storage cubes…. VERY Nice, and practical!!
Where did you purchase the gold legs from and how did you attach them??
Oh, Yes we can! 😊👍
Wow wish I had the confidence to make that bed frame it did look amazing
I think the bar cart was my favorite of these.
Awesome ideas!
All I could say was wow love it
I love these ideas
If you see something that you don't like, then I would really love to see your way of doing it on your own live.
Better get the ikea Kallax cube shelving units. They are better made that the Uber cheap Walmart cube shelving.
these are good but it would be good to slow down the video a little. It is hard to see what they are doing, especially the one with the fur.
You can easily change the playback speed for any video using the settings gear icon to slow/speed as much as you like, it's Really helpful 👍
Cute ideas😊
Great ideas 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😊😊
Love this!
I loved the first wine bar. Creative
Love all the cube ideas
Problem is that the hardwood will last way longer than the particleboard that the storage units are made of
Actually I have 2 of the trofast units from Ikea they were bought for my now 21 year old when he was 2 and they are still going just as strong as the day they were assembled and trust me with 4 boys in the house they were put through everything lol.
If properly taken care of , cube organizer shelves last for a very long time. If you follow the manufacturers instructions on not putting anything heavy on them or moving them around while filled then they'll survive for many years.
I agree. I have two 4 cube units in my bedroom that I use to store my Breyer Horse collection. They're pretty but after just a few years of owning them the wood look sticker finish is peeling off. I wouldn't buy anything like this again.
I ha ve Billy shelves that were bought 13 years ago and still doing good.
Price for this units ????
This is a great idea but I can not stand putting the flat box furniture together😬.
Should put hinges and pulls where gaps are for more storage
Very creative.
I love America for this
Bed frame would hold a fly lol
The bench looks good, but those things won't hold much weight. They are not well made.
Moms to the rescue!!❤
I made better shelves when I was young with cement bricks and boards!😂
❤
Love seing women doi g this! Great job!
Tacky
What a bummer
Momma is handy asf!
Or just be patient and go to goodwill on a regular and find the furniture you need and reduce waste. The waste of buying something new and using even more new things to modify it like this is ridiculous.
That would solve my messy looking room. This place is so small I have my manufacturing stacked up in boxes bags whatever
So smart!
So dumb
Yesss❤👍🔥🥰👏👏👏👏
Women and power tools-such a beautiful thing.
The TV should also be secured to the wall or to the stand. I was in the ER one night and sat by a lady whose grandchild had pulled a TV on top of himself. I am not sure if he made it. I found out TV's frequently kill kids.
Wish it didn't go so fast, as I can't see exactly what to do.
Slow you video speed down😊
The tv stand remains far too small for the tv!
I bought a bench from Jysk just like this for $100 and covered the included cushion with shag. Much cheaper than all this.
For all the time and money spent trying to make the Walmart / closet maid shelves into new items one would have been better off buying ikea that came as the actual ready made piece of furniture needed. I found it obvious this video was made to imitate ikea kallax “hacks”. I agree with many other commenters, goodwill, yard sales, thrift stores much better places to buy real wood furniture that can be modified to make a quality new piece of furniture. Plywood and building supplies are very expensive now.
Girl, you handy.
What if you don’t have all these expensive tools?
🤩❤️👍
Get free plywood pallets made of oak and make your own
Access and excess are two different things. 0:12
Why not strap the tv to the wall?
If it's a rental, they probably can't/don't want to put a wall-mount in. It's much less work to cover up the small holes the wall anchors will put in, rather than all the potential damage a wall-mount TV might cause if something were to go wrong/if they mess up.
WHY DON'T ANY OF YOU TEACH BROTHER SCAN N CUT? MAYBE IT DEOSN'T WORK FOR MOST, THANKS
