In a recent the couple shares how they revamped and old storage box with a few bits from B&M.
The account users said: "We had an old storage box that we had in the main bedroom but as it was grey it didn’t suit the room so I upcycled it".
The account user bought a Chunky Teddy Sherpa throw from B&M for £15, they also bought a three in one staple gun for £9 which came with 600 staple and nails included.
Then they cut the throw with scissor so that it was the correct length to cover the storage box.

Using the staple gun they stapled the throw to the storage box making sure to staple the ends from inside the box.
Then they repeated the same process with the lid of the storage box.

They added some legs to the storage box which they attached with screws.
The final result is a soft lush sleek looking storage box which is a massive transformation from the dull great storage box they started off with.
A storage box with this kind of look would usually set you back quite a bit but this DIY storage box makes a grey addition to any bedroom.
