‘It’s a game-changer!’ Got a fireplace? Well then you NEED to see this $29 Kmart upside-down hack!

Mind. Blown. - by Amy Sinclair
  • 11 May 2019

Anyone with a fireplace knows it’s often hard to find a storage solution that’s functional - and looks good!

While boxes and baskets are the usual go-to option during the winter months, it can be hard to find options that look good and are big enough to hold lots of wood.

‘It’s a game-changer!’ Got a fireplace? Well then you NEED to see this $29 Kmart upside-down hack!

Until now!

One very clever Kmart Mum has genius way to store wood - using an unlikely product from the hugely-popular bargain chain store. 

Using Kmart’s $29 Industrial Side Drawer Table, Kmart Mum Samantha simply turned it upside-down so that the table’s legs act as the perfect frame to hold all your wood. And the drawer at the bottom is the perfect place to store all your fireplace starter essentials. Genius!

Sharing her amazing idea on the fabulous Kmart Mums Australia page, Samantha wrote: ‘Kmart Industrial Drawer turned into fire wood holder. Not bad for $29.’

And thousands of Samantha’s fellow Kmart Mums agree, with her post attracting a whopping 10,000 likes and comments. WOAH. 

Said one: ‘It’s a game-changer! Mind blown!’ Added another: ‘What a bloody good idea!’

Said a third: ‘Oh my god.🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼’

Added one more: ‘I sometimes wonder how people are this smart.’

We do too! Some Kmart Mums were even posting pics of their version of the hack, which they’d whipped up within hours of seeing Samantha’s ingenious invention. Love it!
