Here the basis of the entire construction is that you have to close both sides of the tire with wooden round boards and then cover the entire tire with rope! Use a screw gun for drilling screws and glue-gun to layer glue where necessary! After seeing this entire tutorial you will feel no more an ottoman deficient!\n</p><p>Here half of the project is all about the precise and neat coiling of rope over the tire and around the sides of the tire! This may be a pretty tough and time taking task but if you go with a little patience, you will surely do it brilliantly! In finishing, you can simply coat the completed ottoman with a sealer! Now the ottoman would be ready to go into any of your decided rooms after it gets dried!\n</p><h4>What&rsquo;ll you need\n</h4><p><img decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-9939 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/DIY-Tire-Ottoman-1.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"720\"' height='\"515\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DIY-Tire-Ottoman-1.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><ul>\n<li>An Old Tire\n</li><li>2 Pieces of Round Wood\n</li><li>Screws\n</li><li>Textured Rope\n</li><li>Hot Glue\n</li><li>Glue Gun\n</li><li>Sealer\n</li><li>Old Tires\n\n<h4>Instructions\n</h4><p>First of all grab an old tire, you may visit an auto shop to get an old tire for free or just paying a little from your pocket!\n</p><h5>Clean your tire\n</h5><p><img decoding='\"async\"' class='\"size-full' wp-image-9940 aligncenter src="%5C%22http:%5C/%5C/alternatech.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2021%5C/06%5C/DIY-Tire-Ottoman-2.jpg%5C%22" alt='\"\"' width='\"720\"' height='\"538\"' srcset='\"https:\/\/legendstitch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/DIY-Tire-Ottoman-2.jpg' https: sizes='\"(max-width:'>\n</p><p>Clean your tire by giving it a nice soapy wash!!!
