Like a lot of you, we suddenly found ourselves in a remote learning situation back in March. Now that it’s looking like we’re in this for the long haul I decided I needed to make a dedicated learning space. I DIY’d this cute and super functional homeschool desk in just 15 minutes:

[{"selector":"#anim-48db8bb8-a16d-4d52-af74-72503e0bae55","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-96d2d6f4-a597-4af2-a52e-878593f9a4e3","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] Learn more

How to Make Your DIY Homeschool Desk

[{"selector":"#anim-9545a2c6-e6f0-4b60-a582-acc3f4ac7ef7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4b5433f6-7eba-4de9-b878-a0e64492709a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-193b7590-329b-4cdf-bb2e-3f7939f0626c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":100,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Flip your wood top side down, and position the desk legs (see photo). Make sure to line the leg plates parallel to the desk edge and roughly the same distance away for each one. Learn more

Next, take a marker and scribble a little hole onto the desk top through each leg’s screw hole so you know where to drill your pilot holes.

[{"selector":"#anim-c7a84e3a-6331-466a-ac2b-37a4b8771615","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":600,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3180e792-7061-4ed2-bc5a-0e49d6fc9399","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 195.34268%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":600,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Learn more

Hold a screw up to your drill bit and mark with tape how deep you need to drill the holes. Drill slowly and when the edge of the tape hits the wood, stop and back your drill out.

[{"selector":"#anim-0eecb061-ba6d-41d0-b7d5-80ed744043ae","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-efc874c9-bc0a-4bbf-a35e-b3104907733e","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(116.78321%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3e1e2019-d942-4d62-8f28-9beee5abbb65","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":100,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-50b2b490-445b-42f0-9645-b69a34f8aa49","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(1)","scale(1.5)","scale(0.95)","scale(1)"],"offset":[0,0.33,0.66,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1450,"easing":"ease-in-out","fill":"both","iterations":1}] Learn more

Once you have all your pilot holes drilled, screw in the legs. The hairpin legs I bought came with these snap-on feet to protect the floor and keep the desk from sliding around. It’s the little things.

Step back and admire how handy you are. This 20-inch school desk height works perfectly with a 15-inch seat height for the typical 5 – 10-year-old. Learn more
