The bench, the bag and the Snudda

Raquel and Oscar from Bilbao, Spain, send us a trio of hacks. I'm pretty taken by the bench, composed from Lack side tables and Adel drawer fronts. Nice one. If you have a tight corner, this is definitely a solution you can consider.

Kitchen bench
Bench for the kitchen, made with four Lack side tables (4,99€ x 4 units= 19,96€), covered with Ädel drawer fronts taken from the as-is section (0,50€ x 44 units = 22,00€). Everything fixed with carpenter's glue and small metal squares. All the set for 41,96 €. Very cheap!! The back is topped with ceramic mosaic.




Carved Snudda
The Snudda lazy susan, carved by my father. Smart!



Reusable shopping bag
From the Elisabet fabric, hand sewn.

  7. How sturdy is the bench? I don't trust sitting on a Lack table! :)

  9. The bench is sturdy enough if the Lack tables are fixed between them and to the wall. They resist vertical weights without problem.

    And: Yes, i will share the pattern, but give me some time to make the drawing. Now i'm working on a new bag (Shopping Bag 1.2v, jaja).

  10. Its unique design among all the other choices. You must popularize it in market perspective too.

  14. It's been a few years since this was posted. Does the bench still hold up? Has anyone tried it? Great site! Just discovered it in 2012.
