Is a home really a home without a trivet?? \u00a0Of course it is, not sure\u00a0where I was going with that. \u00a0Trivets are useful and they’re good to have, that’s all! \u00a0I was inspired by this one (first image)<\/a> and wanted to make my own natural wood version, which turned out to be even easier than expected. \u00a0You could certainly stain or dye them, and\u00a0you could also save yourself those steps and they’d be just as beautiful. \u00a0Do as you wish, as always.<\/p>\n Materials:<\/strong> Cut the dowels at a 60 degree angle for each end using a miter box and saw. \u00a0I didn’t think I’d be very good at describing how so here’s a picture to show you:<\/p>\n Cut three identical pieces like this. \u00a0I made two main sizes of trivets, one with 5.5″ length dowels (measuring the longer side) and the other with 7″ lengths. \u00a0I would say\u00a0not to go much larger than this, though I made one at 7.75″ lengths so it would fit around the small one and look cute. \u00a0Also, in the likely event that you don’t cut the angles at perfect 60 degree angles, you may need to shorten the length of one of them if they don’t piece together easily, no big deal.<\/p>\n Apply glue at the attachment points and assemble as shown in the photo above. \u00a0Lay flat until completely dry.<\/p>\n Easy, make them for all your friends, family, neighbors, strangers, and many for yourself. \u00a0 They don’t have to be used as trivets either. \u00a0I’ll definitely be using them for decorative purposes too!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Is a home really a home without a trivet?? \u00a0Of course it is, not sure\u00a0where I was going with that. \u00a0Trivets are useful and they’re good to have, that’s all! \u00a0I was inspired by this one (first image) and wanted to make my own natural wood version, which turned out to be even easier than … Continue reading “DIY Wood Triangle Trivets”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":16346,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16320","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-diy"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16320","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=16320"}],"version-history":[{"count":18,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16320\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16356,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16320\/revisions\/16356"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16346"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16320"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=16320"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.homeyohmy.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=16320"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
