One of the neat things we did with this wall o’ storage is incorporate a “sewing room” into one cupboard.All of my sewing stuff fits into one cupboard and then when I’m ready to work on a project, I just bring my sewing machine up onto the counter, pull up a chair, and go!.

It’s so handy to have the outlet that Chris built right into the countertop and the light up above!.If you want to build something like this on a blank wall in your home, it’s actually pretty simple!.You just need to pick up some basic in-stock upper cabinets from your local hardware store (ours were unfinished oak and I just painted them), build a basic frame on the floor from 2×4’s to raise your cabinets off the floor a litter, and then attach them to the wall and each other!

We had a space that would fit 9 cabinets almost perfectly, so we used 8 and left that little nook in the middle for the counter.We made our own faux butcher block counter, just like we did on.

the long counter in the laundry room.

and I just love the warmth it brings to this back hall.Then I got up the courage to try the “squish their little bodies and leave the carcasses on the leaves so that it smells like death to them” method..

I wore gloves, but I still screamed the whole time.I’m not going lie.

At least out here, there’s no one to hear me!So I just scream away as much as I need to in order to get the job done..
