Dog Crate Nighstand

By day, this might look an ordinary nightstand, but by night, pop open the latch and let your pooch climb right in. If that's not the definition of double-duty, we don't know what is.

Converted TV Console

Remember when TVs were nice furniture pieces? If you've got a retro unit collecting dust in the basement or are lucky enough to find one in a thrift store, you can turn it into a dog bed fit for a king. Rip out the old console's electronic guts—being careful not to break the picture tube—and paint it the color of your choice.

Upcycled Milk Crate Dog Bed

Convert an antique milk crate into a special space for a small dog by cutting out the interior milk-bottle fittings—be sure to use a saw blade for metal—like in this project. Then, just add in a removable cushion with a pillow cover in sweet red-and-white ticking.

Broken End Table Turned Pet Bed

Can't you just imagine your four-legged princess curled up in this classic four-poster bed? Southern Revivals turned an broken end table upside-down and added finials to what used to be the legs to give it extra drama. Some round feet, a coat of white paint, and a chevron-patterned pillow complete the look.

Mid-Century Style Dog Bed

If Betty Draper DIYed, she'd dig this mid-century mod dog bed. Use plywood to build a box sized to fit around a store-bought dog pad, screw on some pre-made legs into angled brackets, and paint in a bright retro color.

Upcycled Side Table Nook

For a dog who likes his privacy but also wants to be near the family, create a special nook for him inside a family room side table. Shellac the wood to prevent stain bleed-through, and then paint in a calming neutral. A two-toned piped pillow makes the inside attractive whether it's naptime or not.

Double-Duty End Table

Brighten up a hexagon-shaped dark wood end table with a fresh coat of paint and spruce up the inside to suggest a cute country doggie cottage, complete with a "Home Sweet Home" sign. Fabric panels in a feminine print are Mod-Podged to the inside "walls" and a comfy cushion and bolsters in a coordinating pattern make it perfect for a pet who likes a cozy sleeping corner.

Scrap Wood Crate Dog Bed

Take some leftover two-by-fours from a previous project and build a faux vintage crate bed on casters. Don't worry about squaring up corners—imperfections just add to the time-worn look. Use vinegar and steel wool to weather the wood, danish oil to age the paint color, and the freezer paper transfer method to add your doggie's moniker.

Repurposed Drawers

You've heard of babies sleeping in drawers in the days of yore, so why not convert some old dresser drawers into a spot for your little furry kids? Paint and distress the wood for a shabby chic look, and affix some house numbers on the front to designate which pup sleeps where. Burlap-covered pillows in each make them perfect for napping.
