Noting Grace
Commercial Lazy Susans are expensive, but they are so easy to make yourself! In your local big box hardware store, they sell Lazy Susan kits. The one we purchased didn’t come with screws, so have someone help you with the size. We purchased 3 rounds of wood found in the trim section of the hardware store and cut scraps of MDF to fit the Lazy Susan kit.
First, measure and mark where you want to attach it to the wood round.
We predrilled holes into both MDF pieces and the round.
Screw one side to the MDF you’ve cut.
Align it with the predrilled holes on the Wood Round and drill the base to the round.
Notice how you have to angle the it to be able to affix it.
That’s it! Easy peasy and super cheapy!
You can attach the self stick felt to the bottom for non skidding, but I chose not to. My shelves are lined and they don’t slide at all on the lining. All three cost about the same as one!
They were a quick and simple update to my pantry!
My wood crates are purchases from Michael’s.
I store my potatoes, onions…
Extra dry goods and bags in them.
Here’s a trick!
Purchase chair sliders that you nail into bottoms of legs.
That way the boxes slide easily in and out (even using your toes, like me) and won’t scuff your floors.
I share with these lovely ladies…
