Here's a bookshelf that I made a few years ago to house our picture books. It
is made out of 3/4" plywood, and is very sturdy. One of my favorite features
is the sideways shelf on the right, which holds all of our long books
that stick out too far if we put them on the other shelves.
I imagined that we would occasionally empty it and use it like a toy house, but that has yet to happen. It also has a chimney tissue holder that holds a regular square tissue box. Here's a closer look:
I want to show you some more of my home made projects, and I was having so much fun taking pictures around the house that I left Julio happily entertaining himself at the dining table. From the other room, I heard him say, "Cow milk. Want it!" And then his big brother call out, "I'll get it for you, Julio!" I got back just in time to see this near-disaster:
The chimney and "smoke" tissues are genius, Maiz!

ReplyDeleteHi. This is really cute. Can we have the dimension? Width, height, space between shelf, depth, depth of the special shelf on the side? I would love to do it for my son. I will help me getting started. Thanks
ReplyDeleteHi, Henri- Here are the dimensions you asked for:
Delete37.25" wide
9.25" deep
53" tall at peak (roof pieces are both 24.5" long)
10.5" space on the bottom shelf
13" space on the 2nd shelf
12.25" space on the 3rd shelf
The front piece that separates the side shelf is 9.25" (it is open between the side books and the other books)
Good luck with your project!
Where can I buy something similar?
