DIY: Top Money ideas from plastic crates

When going gets tough, only the tough keeps going. The economy may seem horrible and tough, but I tell you, you can either sit back,grumble and wait for the government to turn it around for you, or you decide to turn it around for yourself.

In the DIY section of this blog, I've been sharing some cool ways on how to recycle things you see around you daily, into products that can be sold to earn some income.

In this post, I'll be sharing another on how you can turn plastic crates into fine chairs and tables.

1. Cushioned Stool.
