DIY bookends project is one of the simplest projects EVER. To give you some background, I just bought and painted a used piano for my house, and am working on adding some decorations on top of it. I knew I wanted to display some of our favorite classic books and needed some bookends to hold them in place. We, like everyone else, are obsessed with the pineapple trend right now, so that seemed like the natural choice. So let me tell you how easy this is, go to Michael’s and get two wooden pedestals $1 each, 2 faux pineapples, then glue them down with a hot glue gun. Spray paint them gold and you have got a very impressive DIY project. They look elegant on my grand piano.
