For a clean but rustic addition to your living room, try adding a small wooden crate with a nice stain. Its a handy little storage container that can be hidden easily or compliment a room when it is plain sight. This short how-to article from the The Home Depot, making a handy, beautiful crate for your home is only a trip to the hardware store and an hour of your time away! In the words of Senior Editor Caroline Inge:

On our website (and in some stores), you can find unfinished wooden storage crates that are often handy for out-of-sight storage, like in a garage. But their unstained finish may not make them a great storage option for your living room. With a bit of stain and some cabinet pulls, however, we were able to customize a DIY wooden storage crate to give it a more finished look.
