As I was walking through Walmart the other day, which rarely happens so I decided to check out the entire store. I actually found a few treasures like mums, pumpkins, & a wooden crate. The wooden crate for some reason was calling my name so I through the $8 surprisingly really well built crate in my cart along with a few other items from Walmart to use on the crate. To my shock {& horror} I found this rolling wood crate {here} that Walmart is selling for $210! Ummm no thank you, I will just make my own.  With all of my items that Walmart sells right in their store, I made my rolling wood crate for around $25. Got to love DIY my friends!!

This is one of those projects you can do with an extra hour or two of your afternoon & that you can do while you watch your favorite tv show. It’s too simple. Start by painting or staining your crate. You can find crates at craft stores, Walmart, and many other locations. You could also make your own crate, but for eight dollars I couldn’t pass this one up. I painted only the outside of the crate because I wanted to put fabric on the inside. I bought some burlap while I was at Walmart & I loosely lined the inside of the crate with it & used my staple gun to adhere it to the sides of the crate.

 I also purchased some wheels at Walmart & I added them to the crate by screwing them into the bottom of the crate in all four corners. Simple simple & I can’t believe all the items are from Walmart!

I don’t know why, but I’m really surprised I found all of the items for this project at Walmart. They even had pumpkins, even though none of the ones in the photos are actually from there. Just goes to show you can create a DIY project from any store for any price. I’m thinking of getting a lot more of these crates soon for a large scale project. What do you think of my DIY rolling wood crate? What do you think I should use it for after fall I take our fall decor down? I would love to hear from you!
