I love making things myself because I can customize them to fit the needs of my family.
I wanted to kill two birds by combining a pegboard and bookshelf.
I'm not going to give a full tutorial of the bookshelf. It's basically the same shelf I made for my other daughters room, but with a bigger board for the back.

I started with a rectangular mdf board.
And built a simple hanging bookshelf on the top half.
I drilled holes and put shaker pegs into the bottom of the board.
And then I put it all together with a pneumatic nail gun.
After it was painted, my little princesses helped me hang it up on the wall.
They did a great job holding all of the tools and handing them to me when I needed them.
When I asked Mira what she thought of it, she grabbed that little jacket, gave it a big hug and said,
"Mommy, I love it so MUCH!"
Too darling.

Ha! Ha! I am the first to comment! What a great idea. You need a little chair in that reading corner.
ReplyDeleteI just want to tell you that you make everything look so easy. I made one of the bigger book shelves and it is not the prettiest! There is a definite art in measurements and precision when it comes to creating things with wood!
Great job Andy!
I love love love it!
