Mud room Cubbies

Over the break, we were able to tackle one of the bigger projects on my To Do list, although it ended up not being AS big as I thought. 

I shared the MUD ROOM HERE, so check it out if you are interested in more of the room. 

But this is how it started out.  Our winter duds were laid all over when we came in, and I’d hung up a very redneck coat rack to work for the time being.  My mom and dad took the week off and basically did this whole thing for us. 

RC helped Grandma put the wainscoting on the wall. 

I love the look of it on the wall. 

So then, based on my initial idea, Dad got busy building these shelves and racks for coats.  We kept this left hand side lower so Greg can reach it and hook his coats up too. 

I’ve got one coat of clear stain on it, waiting to get another.  However, we jumped right in and started hanging up our stuff. 

This is the final design, with the bench for sitting and eventually, baskets for all of our goods.
