DIY - Dog Crate / Side Table

Our Silky Terrier Louie is the baby in our house. Hard to believe almost four years have passed since he came into our lives! 🥰

He has changed things in our household for the better. We can't understand how we lived for so many years without a beloved pet.

Well, you know who gets extra special treatments and needs to be around us 24/7. Haha yep. it was hard at the beginning, but now I couldn't have it any other way.

It gets to the point where he gets exhausted after a long day and will stay by my side into the early hours of the morning until I head to bed.

I still remember how we bought him traditional dog beds but he would either use them as chew toys or be uninterested in them. I wanted to make him a space where he could relax and calm down, especially when visitors arrived. That's when I came up with the idea of a DIY dog crate that doubles as a stylish side table and that's the project that I'm sharing with you today.

Welcome back to another edition of Home & Décor Encore a weekly series where my friends and I share the best of the best from our archives.
