Hope that helps. Post some pics of your finished product!

When you say the foam needs to be "a little bit larger" how much larger is that? I mean, should the foam actually wrap around the edge of the top? It seems like visually this would be the best looking, but I'm not sure my fabric will with hold that much pressure. Yours is beatiful. How did you do it? Thanks!

I love how you turned an industrial piece of raw material into a stylish, re-purposed home decor delight. Bravo! I would love to make one of these on our show 'Decor It Yourself' over on Threadbanger.com Do you have a video of how to make this? Thanks, Meg That is genius!

I work for an electric utility provided that goes through these spools faster than toilet paper! I wanted to suggest to people that they call their electric utility provider or local electrician and ask if they have any extra wooden spools they'd like to get rid of. We give ours away for free to anyone who wants them! What an awesome idea! I work for an electric utility provided that goes through these spools faster than toilet paper!
