to Make a DIY Modern Dog Bed
Vermont Sales’ brand Kreg runs an informative and interactive portal with loads of FREE content and tips at buildsomething.com. This site literally has everything you need from small to larger and more ambitious projects. In April we looked at the 5-in-1 Kids Art Station, but for May, our favourite project is the DIY Modern Dog Bed. This modern dog bed is a simple build that will put a wag in your best friend’s tail. It’s designed to fit a large dog but is easily modified for any size dog you have and you can build it from a half sheet of plywood in just a few hours. Simply add a bed pillow and you’re good to go! Pet approved!
