In the bathroom for the kiddos to reach the sick. In the pantry to reach the top shelve. In the closet to grab the shoes hidden on the very top row. These functional bits are essentials for every home. And thankfully, there are ways to create them on your own. Check out these 13 different DIY step stools for the family to utilize.

1. White + Wood

Booking and Cooking gave us an easy-to-follow step stool DIY to get us started. This one falls in line with the farmhouse style really nicely. And we love the combo of natural wood coloring alongside white.

2. Simple

Here’s a simple step stool from 100 Things To Do that will definitely provide the function you need. It’s very similar to the previous design but this one was made with darker wood. You could easily trade the white bit out for another neutral like gray or black as well.

3. One-Step

4. Rustic

5. Higher

This design has a bit more height and a bit more of a narrowness about it. It’s still really simple to whip up and the tutorial is just as easy to follow. Grab all the details by visiting White Picket Farmhouse.

6. For the Kids

8. Shining

You could always create a step stool that has a bit of a feminine, finished appeal. That’s what Ana White did with her easy vintage step stool. It shines just a bit and has a delicacy around its design that meshes well with more posh atmospheres.

9. Color-Dipped

Of course, you don’t have to make every step stool from scratch. Instead, you could always use a good Ikea piece and give it a unique spin. That’s what happened here with this color-dipped option from Lovely, Etc.

10. Chunky

For a chunkier design, Bitter Root DIY has you covered. We love projects that use scrap wood and all of these projects can handle those leftover pieces you have lying around the garage. This one can be left natural or painted as well.

11. Small

This design is on the smaller side. It can be used for the kiddos but it’s also a really great piece to decorate with – especially if you decide to use some paint on it. Check out the details at My Repurposed Life.

12. Modern

Bre Purposed whipped up a more modernly styled step stool and we love this option too. For homes that haven’t strayed toward the farmhouse trend, this one may be right up your alley. Keep it traditional with the wood or use some glossy paint to level up in the contemporary style as well.

13. Rainbow
