Don't want to shell out for a dog bed? Turn an old nightstand into sleeping quarters for your sweet pet. 
I inherited a bunch of my grandmother's old furniture, but over the years (and several moves) I've ended up giving away or selling most of it. At this point, all I have left is a floral chair that I'm planning on recovering and a clunky side table that I've never found particularly useful (it has no shelves inside, so isn't really good for storing the kinds of small things you keep in bedside tables...and I don't have space for it anywhere else).
I've been planning on replacing it with something a little more practical...but then the other day I saw this post on transforming an old side table into a cozy dog bed, and knew I had my next project all lined up.
The prep work just involves removing the door and any inner latches, and cleaning the piece really, really well.
After that, all I did was apply three coats of Rust-oleum flat white indoor/outdoor paint.
