Shelfin' It

Shelves sell--I mean who doesn't need/want a little shelf for some extra storage.  Add some hooks and you have even more "storage" options.  I built this little shelf from scrap pieces (I know, are you tired of hearing that?).  I used some picket pieces for the sides and some wood from a friend's workplace (they build huge crates to ship the machines they build--I caught him burning good 1x8's and put a stop to that!).
Some little scrap wood pieces worked for shelf supports and then scrappy pieces for the back and hooks in the front completed the shelf.

  4. Becky I love the shelf! It goes with all the other great things you've made. You just think we're tired of hearing that you built it from "scrap pieces" .... just like I think they are tired of hearing that "I found it by the side of the road!"
    Looks great!
