Have some old tires sitting unused in your garage? Instead of throwing them away, give them a new purpose with this creative DIY Tyre Stool. With a few basic materials, some upholstery fabric, and the right tools, you can transform old tyres into a colourful and comfortable stool for your home.
This upcycling project is a great way to combine creativity with practical home décor. The best part is that you don't need complicated equipment. The Miles TS 623 Combo brings together a gun tacker, cutter, and staple pins, making it a convenient choice for projects that involve cutting, fastening, and upholstery work.
Whether you want an extra seat for your living room, balcony, bedroom, or creative corner, this DIY stool is an easy project to try at home.
• Miles TS 623 Combo
• Three old tyres
• Thick cardboard or round wooden board
• Round foam cushion
• Fabric such as cotton or canvas
• Four caster wheels with screws
• Screwdriver
• Paint for the tyres
Start by measuring the opening of the tyre and draw a circle of the same size on your thick cardboard or wooden board. Use the Miles Cutter from the TS 623 Combo to carefully cut the circular base.
Make sure the edges are smooth and the base fits securely over the tyre opening.
Place the round foam cushion over the cardboard base. Cover the foam and board with your chosen fabric.
Pull the fabric evenly around the edges so that there are no loose sections or visible wrinkles.
Turn the seat upside down and use the Miles Gun Tacker to secure the fabric to the base. Load the provided staple pins and staple around the edges while keeping the fabric stretched.
The gun tacker helps create strong and secure fastening with minimal effort, making the upholstery process quicker and easier.
Once the fabric has been completely secured, use the Miles Cutter to carefully remove the excess material around the edges.
A clean trim gives the underside of the cushion a neat finish and prevents loose fabric from getting in the way during assembly.
Take the bottom tyre and attach four caster wheels using the required screws and a screwdriver. Position the wheels evenly around the base so that the finished stool can move smoothly.
Stack the three painted tyres securely on top of one another. Once they are properly positioned, place the upholstered cushion over the top tyre.
Your DIY Tyre Stool is now ready to use.
