This diy-er is at it again! I recently added the perfect accent table to my kitchen using wood crates from a local craft store. I really wanted to display my tiered tray in the kitchen, but the thought of taking up counter space or my kitchen table gave me anxiety. I didn’t want to have to constantly move it out of the way and it wasn’t really the look I was going for. My heart was set on a specific corner and really couldn’t find a table for the space.

I fell in love with a blanket ladder at Boston Interiors a few years ago, but I didn’t fall in love with the price. It was a little out of my budget for something that holds blankets. I honestly forgot about wanting one. Thankfully there’s Pinterest to remind you of all the things you love, want to do, and want to create.
