Need some storage and display solutions for that new TV you got for your Netflix binges? Having the perfect space for your TV watching is key, and all that equipment needs to look stylish while keeping you entertained. Many designer stores carry amazing pieces designed just for this, and I fell in love with several until I saw the price tags. Paying thousands of dollars for any piece of furniture is simply not in my budget, not now, and maybe not ever. When I start looking at huge price tags like that, my mind starts getting creative, wondering how I can make the same thing. Are you the same way? Well, when it comes to DIY entertainment centers, you can certainly get crafty and make something cool but budget friendly. From console tables to display and store things next to the TV to cool cabinets for housing and hiding the stereo and all your cables to media consoles that sort of do it all, we have 32 must see ideas for you to consider before making this important piece of home decor. Making a media table or TV console is not very hard, either. At first, I was rather intimidated by the idea of making furniture, but last fall, I delved into this DIY coffee table project. Not only was it easy, but the results were so amazing, several of my friends now want me to make one for them. Whether you are looking for something clean and modern, the uber popular vintage farmhouse look or a funky thrift store makeover for your living room entertainment needs, we have the perfect project for you here in this list of the best DIY media consoles around. Some of these do it yourself ideas even come with free downloadable plans! Complete with gorgeous step by step tutorials from some of our favorite DIY bloggers and Pinterest peeps, you are going to have much fun looking and deciding which one to choose.

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
