Laundry Closet Shelves (Kreg Jig project #5)

Hi again!

Not too many projects going on lately.  Although, I did get the shelves up on the right hand side of  the "new" laundry closet.

Before:

The bottom shelf sticks out a bit so I can use it for folding clothes.

 I still have room to reach underneath for the trash and step stool. 

The second shelf holds paper towels and tissues. 

Third shelf is for toilet paper. 

Other side. 

I have set up a metal shelf temporarily on top of the dryer, for other laundry stuff. 

For the side shelves I used leftover wood from C's dollhouse.

The pieces weren't wide enough or deep enough, so I had to Kreg Jig pieces together.  

This blurry pic is from the bottom shelf.  It needed to be 17 inches wide and the Dollhouse boards were only 12 inches wide.  So, I joined a piece of  5 inch wide 3/4" plywood to make up the difference. It's the deepest shelf at 30 inches.

Here the other two shelves are getting lined up.

I had to Kreg Jig them so they'd be deep enough.  They only had to be 24 inches deep. I had two pieces that were 36 inches long x 12 inches wide, so I cut them to 17 inches and joined them. 

Everything is fitting in nicely. 

You can see from this pic that I covered the boards with some leftover wallpaper and shelf liner.

The wallpaper came from the wardrobe pantry and my MIL gave me the clear ridged shelf liner.

I also put in a silver drying bar and a green hanging "basket" for stray socks (kids' socks in bottom and adults' in the middle).

All in all, I'm very pleased with the results!

Have a great day! :-)
