If you've ever wanted to learn how to make a crate cover for your dog's crate, this is the video for you! Sewing isn't my/our strength, so we show you some neat little tricks on how to sew a dog crate covereven if you're not that great at sewing.

Dogs are den animals, which is why some of them love being in their crates. But standard wire dog crates can be quite unsightly. From the first day we got Roadie, we realized that while he loves being in his crate, he prefers that it be covered so he can snuggle up, nap or just have some privacylike his own little room. While we started covering his dog crate with a beach towel, we finally tired of the look and decided to make a crate cover that coordinates more with the living room. As an added bonus, we decided to make him a coordinating fuzzy crate pad, as he loves the fuzzy blanket we keep on the couch.

We hope you enjoy the video! All of the materials we used to make the crate cover are listed below. And of course, drop us a question in the comments if there's anything you want to know.
