adding casters for more functionality

October 14, 2011 by Lindsey 1 Comment

I’m gearing up to share our finished living room with you guys so I’m trying to get all the small projects posted before them. Remember this chest I used for linen storage at our last apartment?

Well, in this place it serves a different purpose. We needed storage for games, movies and blankets in the living room and I had the perfect place for the chest. I wanted it to be a bit more mobile though.

Adding mini casters was the best option. They were $1.49 per caster at Lowe’s and it took Al about 5 minutes to attach them all.

It took some organizing to get everything to fit in there but I was able to do it in a way that you can see the titles of movies and each game. I simply fold the blankets and rest them on top.

Having it on casters is great because we can roll it around, use it as extra table space and set up a game on it. It fits perfectly under a window in our living room and one day I will get around to painting it. How do you guys store games and DVD’s if space is limited?

Anyone have fancy plans for the weekend? Have a good one!
