Building anything on the main floor where the kitchen and living room become the workshop is sometimes frustrating, messy and wears a bit on the patience.
Getting the pieces painted (3 coats) and hauled to the mall were sequential jobs.
Because of the weight of the lumber the shelf needed to be put together in the mall.
Adding the first shelf to the sides was the usual 'will it work' worry and adding the first back piece brought a sigh of relief.
I know I missed painting the front edges of the shelf. You will be pleased to know I gave the back edges 3 coats (because I thought they were the front of course).
The shelves are attached. The back is in place. I will paint the front edges early in the day (at the mall before it is open to customers). A job for after Christmas.
First stock on the shelves.
Whew !
And for those who read the first post on building this shelf, it will be moved to replace a shelf in my other space after Christmas (more depth).
Thanks for visiting.

Very nice. I have one of the metal shelving units you screw together in my craft area and it isn't sturdy at all like your project.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to Mosaic Monday.
Very well done, I like the shelf. It does hold a lot of stock. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteYour new shelves will hold a lot of stock. Looks sturdy too.
ReplyDeleteHi Joy,
ReplyDeleteWow, you are a worker! I do like these deeper white shelves. The colorful items pop. Good job!
The "never" is clicked on my settings. This verification just showed up on its own today, and I'm not happy with it!
Thanks for playing today.
Happy Blue Monday!
Such a wonderful shelf! Oh my, all the treasures holding court on your lovely shelf. I am happy you shared this. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI have been looking for a shelf unit for inside a closet, you inspired me to make one, thanks
ReplyDeleteIt looks great. Any particular reason for making the sides come to a semi point at the top?
ReplyDeleteThe future placement of the shelf space has a shelf overhead with thick wooden supports, have to work around that, thus the strange top shapes.
Deletethe shelf is wonderful of course, however I have never seen a limo toy car
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous! I love it. Pinned and tweeted. Thanks for being a part of our party! I hope you stop by on Monday at 7 pm. We love to party with you. Merry Christmas! Lou Lou Girls
