As a way to help eliminate clutter, provide MORE storage, and allow for MORE seating...with the help from my grandparents we created crate storage seats. In order to create these gems I went to Wal-Mart to purchase the crates for $3.47/crate. I then found pre-cut material for $1.25 for each square (which was the PERFECT size). Then, I purchased some foam to cushion the seat for small bottoms for $15. Next I found some board laying around our house and we cut it to fit inside the crate and sanded it. In order to make the seat I layed down the material, then the foam, then the board. I then took my handy dandy staple gun and stapled the material down and added a loop so I can pop off the top....VA-LA! I now have some colorful, fun, and practicle furniture for my classroom!
