So what to do with that old wine barrel you picked up at a flea market years ago and it’s been collecting dust in the basement? Keep using it as an end table or flower pot? Nah, Rock Creek Furniture Company at Etsy.com came up with a really smart DIY idea that you can try yourself or buy from them.

Beautifully , aged reclaimed wine barrels are turned into stylish dog beds and feeders that you can’t find at a mass retailer. This Colorado based company uses barrels from reclaimed American or French oak which are carefully reinforced, sanded and and sprayed with a high-quality clear finish for a lasting product.

You can change the feeling of the bed easily by experimenting with different fabrics for the cushion. Plaids will give this a classic country look while bold modern prints make it edgy and cool.

A reversible cushion with fleece on one side is a great way to add warmth for winter.

This can be yours for the same price as a case of vintage vino-$250 plus shipping.

Make your Hep Hound – Hepper! Cuteness, comfort and function merge in this new Trampoline bed from Hepper.
Hailing from the Zenith of Pet Luxury Design – Vermont (ok maybe not the zenith but PupStyle calls it home!) – Hepper Home recently launched with a sweet line up of style-friendly dog, cat and bird domiciles. One of the doggie designs that caught our eye is the Wave Bed, a very simple design comprised of a steel frame with a micro-suede padded “hammock” that hangs above the floor. Being suspended off the floor keeps pups toasty in the winter and cooler in the summer. One thing to note – there is a weight limit of about 15lbs. – so plusher pooches need not apply! The Wave bed can be purchased directly from Hepperhome.com for $85.

Super cool wooden dog bed from Holden Designs

A bed worthy of a God! If there were ever a design god in the dog furniture world, Jon Wesley Rahman, founder of Holden Designs, Inc. would be that deity. An architect and furniture designer by trade, he feels the same way we do about designing dog products that are pleasing for both pooch’s and people’s perspectives. This slice of tastiness is a work of art disguised as a dog bed. Made from bent plywood with a Walnut veneer it is ideal for small to medium size dogs. The only down side is that it does not come with a cushion. Their web site states that they offer a Cornflower Blue cushion, but we can’t seem to find it. Don’t sweat it, because it works oh so well with an IKEA sheep skin happy pad (not included but available at IKEA stores for around $20). Thanks to Holden Designs, we can all finally burn our dingy old dog beds and blankets and renew our dog’s sleeping quarters! The bed measures 27.25″ x 22″ W x 11″ H. Available from designpublic.com for $250
