Besides essential furniture, I think every home needs to have a TV stand. Let’s face it, modern TV’s might be thin but they do have huge screens and we also have other media devices such as DVD players, gaming consoles and whatnot so we need a dedicated piece of furniture to put them on.
Investing in an attractive but also functional TV stand is usually costly but not if you make your own, or upcycle an old one. There is a bit of work involved in making your own TV stand but it is a perfect weekend project. Just a bit of elbow grease and you can save hundreds of dollars if not even more!
Check out these DIY TV stands – some of them are made from scratch, others are made from old furniture so I’m sure you will find all the instructions needed to create your own without breaking the bank. Which one’s your favorite?
