DIYnot

I love DIY projects. The whole Do It Yourself idea really appeals to me. I love when someone says "where did you get that?!" and I can answer with "I made it!" It really provides me with a feeling of accomplishment!

I love browsing blogs, websites, and magazines for these great How-to projects. Today I came across an awesome DIY project for an ottoman at DesignSponge. This blog is an amazing place for ideas, inspiration, and great photos. Check it out.

They have this tutorial for an awesome ottoman that I am longing to create. I may need some assistance from my Dad but I think it would be a fun project for him and I to do because we are trying to redo his apartment. So this is a great addition to the living room furniture.
I want to make this ottoman with a different fabric, perhaps a hounds tooth or a Burberry like plaid. What do you think? What fabric would you choose? Anyways Here are a few more photos of the steps involved:
Check out more photos and details/instructions at the link above. I'd love to know if anyone gives this or any other DIY project from DesignSponge. Let me know! Or if you know of any other great sites for DIY projects!
