Home Depot Virtual Party
Rustic Wheelbarrow
*This post is sponsored by The Home Depot
Welcome to The Home Depot Virtual Party!! For today’s party, 25 DIY bloggers created a customized version of this beautiful rustic wheelbarrow project…
On Thursday, September 18th at 6:30pm, this project will be the featured build at Home Depot DIH Workshops across the nation. I know what you’re thinking…is there a class near me? Click HERE to find out!
If you’ve never attended a Home Depot Workshop, there are three types of Workshops—Do-it-Yourself (DIY), Do-it-Herself (DIH), and Kids—geared toward all ages and experience levels. The workshops are held at every store, and offer a variety of topics ranging from home repair to tool instruction, and even building home decor projects!! Not to mention, they’re FREE, and a great place to work on your skills and meet new friends who love to DIY!
Okay so without further ado, here’s how I customized my Rustic Wheelbarrow:

I first cut the balusters and dowel to length to make the handles, legs and axel. I then cut a 7-inch round wheel from sandwiched 1 x 8 boards I had lying around the shop. Once I slid the axel through the handles and wheel, all I had to do was attach it to the pre-made crate I purchased at The Home Depot, and then add the legs. In the end, I thought it would be a cute addition to an Octoberfest party we throw at our home, and look beautiful surrounded by yummy cider and donuts for the kids. What do you think? How would you customize this project?

What a smart idea (and time saver!) to use a pre-made crate! And I love how it looks with the plaid blanket!
