How cute are these adorable little Upcycled Drawer Beds! BTW… drawers are my favorite item in the world to upcycle, the possibilities are truly endless.

DIY Thrift Store Dog Bed – Craft Box Girls
There is a plethora of baskets at many Thrift Stores, all different shapes and sizes! Well they all weren’t made to display flowers or hold pretty throws in the Living Room, or organize your crafting goods! Some were meant to become a sweet little doggie bed that will make your pup feel like royalty! Make sure that the basket of choice is well built, sturdy, has not sharp pieces anywhere and then give it a pretty paint job, add a comfy cushion and maybe even a nameplate to make it super personalized! How cute is this!
DIY Upcycled Table Dog Bed – HGTV
Here’s a cute and cozy idea from your friends at HGTV. Find a Thrift Store End Table that is enclosed, even with a door because it can be removed easily. Then come on over here and see how you can turn it into a house bed. The pup will have a space where they feel comfy, cozy and safe. Plus it looks fabulous!
Dog Toy Basket – Artsy Chics Rule
