If you’ve ever stepped into a Walmart, you know their storage cubes are versatile and affordable.

But have you ever considered using these cubes for more than just stacking stuff?

People are getting incredibly creative with these cubes in their bedrooms, transforming them into stylish and functional pieces that elevate the room’s decor.

Let’s dive into some of the most brilliant new ways people are using Walmart storage cubes in their bedrooms.

Crafting a Cozy Cube Organizer Bench

One of the most popular projects is the cube organizer bench.

Start by assembling a simple 3-cube storage organizer. Next, staple fabric with batting around the organizer, cutting away any excess material and securing it tightly.

Add a layer of upholstery foam on top for comfort, then wrap and secure fabric around the foam.

This bench not only provides extra seating but also adds a touch of elegance to your room.

Stylish Fabric Storage Cube Covers

Another fun idea is to make fabric covers for your storage cubes.

Use an inexpensive woven rug and hot glue to wrap around the storage bins.

For a finishing touch, poke holes in the fabric and add a handle using brads.

This DIY project is easy and cost-effective, giving your storage cubes a chic, customized look.

Upgrading to a TV Console Tabletop

If you need a larger TV stand, consider using storage cubes as the base.

Get some molding and an unfinished wooden top to create a larger surface.

Secure the board to the cubes with wood glue, nails, and screws.

Finish with a dark stain and polyurethane for a polished look.

This project results in a sturdy, stylish TV console that perfectly fits your space.

Maximizing Space with Under-Bed Storage

For those with limited bedroom space, under-bed storage using these cubes is a game-changer.

Assemble a storage unit in just 10 minutes and paint pine pieces to create a bed frame.

Make U-shaped legs from 2x4s and use plywood and screws to elevate the mattress, attaching the storage unit underneath.

This clever setup provides ample storage without taking up additional floor space.

This table can serve as an entryway piece, a display area, or additional storage in your bedroom.

Its modular nature allows you to customize it to fit your specific needs and space constraints.
