DIY Book Ends

- Tools
- Clamps
- A compound miter saw or hand saw (truly, all of these cuts could be made without any power tools)
- Materials
- DAP Plaster of Paris
- DAP Rapid Fuse All Purpose
- DAP Rapid Fuse Wood Adhesive
- Scrap wood (you'll need 4 pieces that are roughly 5 1/2 x 6 inches–we used some scrap red oak plywood we had on hand, but ANY wood will do)
- 1 plastic horse or other animal
- Paint (optional)
Book ends can be expensive... unless you find a way to make them yourself! Here's a way to add a little sophistication to your book shelf without breaking the bank.
