For LACK Of A Reasonably Priced Chalk Table

Materials: Lack Side Table, Idealisk Measuring Cup

Description: What happens when you’re fed up with the cheap quality, high priced, children furniture sold in stores???

You say screw it and make your own cheap quality furniture for less.

This hack came about when I tried to purchase a chalk table for my preschool art classes. As I later discovered that these chalkboard tables can go for an obscene amount of money, I figured, “I can build it for less than $50.” I was DEAD WRONG because it only cost me less than $25 in materials.
