Built-in toy shelves

Built-in toy shelves made from reclaimed wood

Bar counter seating --> toy shelves.Built from a combination of reclaimed pallets (clean and chemical free) in combination with new pine boards, these sturdy shelves were built strong enough to climb.


Shelves: 1x6's glued and pocket screwed together.Ends: Colorful bits from the wood pile, with extra distressed textures added by my son (then four years old) and his trusty hammer.


The whole assembly attached to the wall with inconspicuous steel L brackets.If present/future owners wanted to reconvert the area to bar counter seating, it'd be as simple as removing a handful of screws.
