DIY - Home Made Stools from IKEA bookshelves and legs from IKEA stool

 Here's what you need:

1. IKEA MARIUS stool (the legs)
2. IKEA bookshelf (second hand) - cut into squares, 2 squares for one stool
3. measuring tape
4. pencil
5. jigsaw
6. wood varnish
7. screws
8. wood glue
9. sandpaper

items which we will be using!

After cutting the bookshelf into perfect squares, we clean the wood pieces as there are some wood dust and shavings. Next we add the wood glue and put 2 pieces of square woods together.

After gluing the 2 pieces of wood together, let it dry then screw 4 at each corner to fasten the 2 pieces of wood together.

Once you are done, varnish the wood pieces to the colour that you like, for us, we have chosen a walnut colour, it's the leftover paint from my DIY IKEA Moppe Hack.

While hubs is painting the wood pieces, I went to print some number to personalise the stools. Here it is!

So we cut out the numbers and stick it on the wood. Tape on all the sides with newspapers and we are ready for a quick spray paint job.

VOILA!!!

here's the finished product!

And we are going to give these stools to Iron Lady chef for her spanky new place as she is looking for stools for her balcony ceramic table. 

 Here's the top view of the stools with the personalised numbers.
