BlaznHotAussies Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Has anyone made their indoor dog crates to look like or function like furniture? (And I don't mean the clothes/towels/random junk from the car storage on top of them ) Would love to see the finished product/s!! TIA :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulesP Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 In my last house I had them underneath a dining room table. That sort of made them look like furniture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's something I'm meaning to do actually!! We hardly use our dining table as a dining table so it would save some space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuralPug Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I saw on Facebook a really nice home made large dog crate made from a wooden slatted cot. The legs were cut way down and part of one side hinged for a door (it sat flat against the crate front.) Finished with a polished timber "roof" ( from an old dining table). It was beautifully sanded, stained and varnished. Very stunning, but if you have a dog that enjoys chewing wood not very practical! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Kisses Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Some inspiration: http://www.denhaus.com This is a pretty clever idea: http://handheldpyrometer.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/dog-crate-furniture-diy-c3e3b52ac72a8057fad269500b77c7f2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuralPug Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Those Zenhaus circular ones look a bit like garbage bins! I couldn't get the handheld pyrometer link to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papillon Kisses Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Yeah I just tried clicking on it too and the link had disappeared. I'll try to find it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
