I need to make something very sturdy soon. I got two 18lb cats and those pressed paper cat trees don't hold for too long.

Very easy, quick project! I needed a treasure chest for a bday party tomorrow and this was very achievable in a few hours

That is exactly why I needed the first one I made! Birthday parties are such great excuses to make things. I am glad my idea worked for you!

I had this idea only with duck tape instead of paint. I wasn't sure how I would go about making the lid but sure enough, I found your video. Thank you! 🤗

You just reminded me of that phase in the early 2000's when everyone was making stuff like wallets and dresses out of duct tape. I might have to go buy a few rolls for a new project! I'm glad my video could help!

Wonderful project. I made a homemade tall cat tree by taking an old wicker table that I had that was not too pretty anymore for the living room and attached a short and cheap cat tree to it. For extra stability since the wicker is so light and the cat tree can tend to be heavy, I got a decorative fabric cubby to put on the bottom shelf of the wicker table and put large heavy beach rocks at the bottom and her toys and sunrises on top. And in the bottom cubby in the cat tree that she never really used cuz it’s so tiny (and she doesn’t like those kinds of tight spaces anyway) I filled a burlap bag with heavy rocks and that puppy don’t move now. I put it in front of her favorite window and next to a homemade climbing/nap wall I made from an old twin mattress I was going to toss. I just covered the mattress with a nice grippy upholstery fabric. And since the climbing wall is in the hallway I don’t even need to attach it to the wall if she topples it over cuz it is still easy for her to cling to as it falls to hit the opposing wall and then she has plenty of ways to hop down either to her cat tree or a living room arm chair right by the hallway entrance. Or she cries for me to push it back in place as she rides it back in place. Those two pieces get the most use compared to any other cat furniture I’ve purchased. Except for the perfect cat scratching post I found at a feed store. It’s super tall and has the heavy wide base. It comes with me anytime we travel cuz it takes up little space. I put it in the car last and nudge it between the luggage and the base against the rear seat door behind the driver so no windows get blocked. Thanks for inspiring me with your kitty condo build. I’m sure your baby will love it for years to come

I am so happy I found your post! Last week I was just thinking "I wish I could make an easy structure for our Snow Day event at school", and Voila, I found your post. I used Home Depot boxes, tape and a batch of staples, and bulletin board paper. It was as simple as you said. You gave such great directions. Our kids have special needs and this event in our gym needs to provide a sensory experience. Lots of kids visited this igloo yesterday where they got to be in their own space. And the event was fabulous! Thank you!!

Hello! I used my previous pinecone ornaments for six years before making this new set, so they are definitely reusable year after year. After last Christmas was done, I placed all my pinecones into a plastic bag and then surrounded that bag with bubble wrap and packing paper, just like all my other fragile glass ornaments. I did just pull them all out to take inventory this year and they are good to go back onto the tree!

Excellent job! I’m also a professional dressmaker/seamstress and crafter who enjoys making everything herself and I must give you kudos for your fantastic creations. Good for you! Excellent way to not only save money (especially with having kids), but to make things you can be proud of.

Other than my holding my breath every time I saw you drilling near your bare feet, you did a wonderful job. Another woodworking tip: When using glue for any wood project, don’t just lay down lines of it. You want to spread it like you would with paint. You can use a brush or anything that will allow you to spread it on the surface. The other materials will hold better, dry smoother and be less subject to shifting with change in humidity and house temperature. Also, periodically check that your staples are still in place because wood swells and contracts with changes in humidity which can cause the staples to loosen over time. Trust me when I tell you that you don’t want your kitty to get hold of a loose staple to play with and possibly get it stuck in their mouth or paw.

We bought a nice cat tree. When our guys got to adult size it started to wobble, took it apart and the posts were hollow flimsy plastic under the rope and carpet. It wasn't PVC , it was some hollow thin plastic tubes with threaded holes for the bolts that warped easily. I want to make my own. This is a great video thank you.
