HEAD TURNER Donna Tunnell wanted a Lazy Susan for the dining room table in her home in Webb City, Missouri, but hadn’t found what she was looking for. “I wanted something more unique than what I could find in the store,” she says.

On a trip to her local antique mall, Donna spotted a secondhand dartboard and snatched it up. It was just the right size to become a Lazy Susan, and she knew she could DIY one with it. “I have always enjoyed crafting because it gives me a chance to exercise my creativity,” she says. “I enjoy making something ordinary into something extraordin­ary.”

The project was ready in no time, and now it holds everything from napkins and salt and pepper shakers to vases of flowers. And it’s become a conversati­on starter for guests—just the thing she was looking for.
