A Knife Block for the Intellectuals

Out of all the DIY fails on this list, we can at least appreciate why someone might do this. Granted, this isn't the most aesthetically pleasing knife block - but at least it seems to serve its intended purpose. So, fair play to the person who gave upcycling a try instead of throwing their old books and knives in the garbage. We just hope that the string is tied tight enough...otherwise, the structural integrity of this creation might be in jeopardy!

We can only imagine how carefully you would have to insert the knives into these books. Otherwise, you would undoubtedly risk hacking this charming creation into shreds. Gently does it!
