In the late 2000s I kept a personal mom blog called Nest Bliss. I reviewed books, wrote about the house and the girls, and was even in the Wall Street Journal. These posts are from then: light, young, a mom in her late twenties. I have edited them to stand on their own.
Project 4 – Casters Make Everything Better So I have a belief: cool casters make most furniture better. You name it - dresser, table, sofa - it can be improved if you have 10 minutes and some cool casters. Fruit Crate on Wheels (magazine holder or in my home baby push toy)
Coffee-Table Turned Play Table on Wheels (will post a how-to on this table next week - it has a cool surprise in the top)
I Have a Bunch of These Clear Casters Just Waiting Around for the Right Project
www.Rockler.com is a good source for unique casters and www.NorthernTool.com is a good source for cheap casters. I get ours from various places for cheap. I buy cool knobs and casters on clearance and stock pile them until I find a use for them. Finding clear or colored casters is exciting! If I wasn't driving to South Carolina right now I would run into the guest room and grab a photo of the blue wool chair I have with pewter casters on the feet. But, I guess you'll just have to believe me - it is pretty great. Another cool thing about casters is they change the height of things. For example, the play table above needed to be a tad taller and those casters were perfect for that. Plus my toddler can now drag a large white coffee table around the house - awesome ;) Check out all the projects in this week-long feature category by clicking here . Want More Caster Inspiration?
