Description: I have been working on a lengthy list of small projects to finish up the craft room. We brought in the desks that I had made earlier. We also brought in a free-standing coat closet that I had made for our old house. I also made some bookshelves that are hung from above on the French cleats and the supporting structure for the shelf works as bookends on the shelves. I attached a French cleat to an old blackboard that we have and hung that in the room. I made some very narrow shelves out of the red alder that I cut down with my friend Gabe a few years ago. These shelves will be good for holding framed artwork. We brought Calvin's train table into the craft room to use as a work table as Calvin is not as into trains as he used to be. I put up an extension cord reel on the ceiling so we can have an extension cord wherever we need it in the craft room and beyond. The last big project was some storage shelves along the back wall of the craft room. I made these free-standing as the back wall is concrete and I did not attach any French cleats in that location. The craft room is essentially done at this point although there are always more small projects to be done.
