Learn how to make these simple, custom pineapple DIY bookends in just a few steps! The supplies are also very budget friendly.
Hello DIY Candy! Today’s DIY bookends project is one of the simplest projects EVER. To give you some background, I just bought and painted a used piano for my house, and am working on adding some decorations on top of it.
I knew I wanted to display some of our favorite classic books and needed some bookends to hold them in place. We, like everyone else, are obsessed with the pineapple trend right now, so that seemed like the natural choice.
So, even though you can probably guess the steps without reading ahead, here is how I made them.

DIY Bookends
Supplies:
- Block of wood
- Faux pineapple (I found mine here)
- Glue gun
- Spray paint
1. Put some hot glue on the block.
2. Place your pineapple on the hot glue.
3. Let the glue dry.
4. Spray paint the pineapple and wood.
After a little drying time, you have beautiful, custom bookends! This could not be easier, and the possibilities (colors, shapes, etc.) are endless.
Happy crafting! And be sure to come visit my sister and me as we blog about style, food, and the things we love over at The Pretty Life Girls.

What is the color of the paint your purchased. I just did some placemats and they didn’t turn out the shinny gold i want.
