Noboru has another take on creating an elevated dog bowl stand. Here’s his story.
He says, “My parents just got 2 new dogs. I decided to give the newest family members a gift for Christmas. I love minimalist design. The economy is in a recession and I’m broke. I don’t have an electric saw to make those awesome dog feeders on IkeaHacker. What am I gonna do?
1. Head over to the As-Is section of Ikea.
2. Watch a beam of sunlight break through the clouds and cast its divine glow upon a set of Capita legs priced at $3.50! Snatched ’em!
3. Pick up some ‘ole white piece of particle board from the random particle board section of the As-Is. The girl working nearby priced it at $1 because I assume she couldn’t resist my sexy looks and charm.
4. Pick up 4 Bastis bowls. 50 cents each!
5. Head to my other favorite kick-it spot, The Container Store. Dropped big money on the Boot Tray. $8!
6. Drilled some holes and screwed everything together!
Voila! Le Fancy Dog Table for Le $14.50!
Minimal design, minimal price!
The end.”
