I have a hard time falling in love with a piece of furniture that sits squarely on the floor. They just look so flat and heavy without some space in between. Stand up, you lazy furniture! Stop squatting on the ground!
Kristy devised a way to elongate her nightstands that were, in her words “Too short, too old, and way too brown.” A lovely set of legs!
See more on her blog 4 the Love of Wood. Thanks Kristy!

August 24, 2011 at 4:16 AMAmazing transformation! I would not have thought of adding legs, but that is exactly what these needed.
Did you buy the legs somewhere? Or were they taken from another piece of furniture?
