Easy DIY dog crate cover to hide it away

November 2, 2020 by Shellie Wilson

Many folks have recently adopted dogs, and along with a dog comes a dog crate. Dog crates are not pretty in the home. This is a simple tutorial to turn the unsightly dog crates into a side table. What is unique about this is that it covers two dog crates and not in the typical orientation. This works well for people who have small spaces and can’t put their crates in to end. See the full tutorial and learn how to make your own dog crate hideaway cover here.
