DIY Bookcase from a Cable Spool

Recycling something that seems useless and giving it second life is always my favorite DIY project. Like shipping pallets, wooden cable spools are also useful resource for making furniture and you can usually get one for free on Craigslist. If you like reading and own a lot of books, you might want to have extra space to place your books. I came across this amazing upcycle project at the blog Pink Stitches. The author turned a free wooden cable spool into an incredibly cute bookshelf. What a creative idea and the project is easy to do! All you need to do is just paint the spool, install the casters and several wooden dowels for support. I like the idea of adding the casters so the bookcase can be easily moved around in your room or turned around to access the books. You can also use it as a coffee table or end table. What an ingenious piece of furniture that you can make from an old cable spool!
