Made entirely from 1x2 pine. Ripped into thirds for the shelf slats. Pocket holes. Glue. Brads and glue for the shelf slats.

Well, if you live outside the US, the shipping costs of the shelf from Amazon might have made this cheaper, even if the pricetag says otherwise.

My uncle made me a similar looking plant stand about 5 years ago. Even though it took more to make it yourself, it will definitely last a lot longer.

So much nicer than Amazon or Ikea. Bah, fuck that crap, do anything yourself. I’m in the process of making a sofa because they’re painfully expensive or total crap here, learning to sew and anything about upholstery foam. Free yourself from the corporate tyranny & make it all yourself!
