Coming Soon to Maison & Mason!
Guess what I'm making?! My new DIY project is a new entertainment center. And I hope to have these for sale on Maison & Mason soon. Completely 100% handmade and 100% beautiful!
Like all mothers, storage is always such an issue. I am a bit OCD and I like things organized. I believe this makes for a happier home, happier kids, and happier husband. Anyways, in my family room there are two large baskets…not great for easy accessibility. Especially when your child is the same size as said-basket. So I searched out a chic entertainment system for not an expensive price and just didn't like what I was finding, thus why I'm making my own. Also, the ones I did like were $1,000…yeah…no.
Here is an idea of what it will resemble, but with modifications:
My shelf will be 6' long, about 30" tall, and about 1' out from the wall. The bottom will have 3" bar legs to allow consoles to be under the shelf (& more hidden from plain view.) The two bottom shelves will be then filled with standard wicker baskets OR tin basket with chalkboard hanging signs to indicate what each basket is for: cars, trains, legos, etc. This will make for easy clean-up as well!
And on the very top I will plan to have two beautiful tall lamps and my tray with books, flowers, and picture frames. I'm very excited to re-do this area in my home.
Here is a picture of the before:
The trunk will then be moved to my bedroom for storage and a new side table. Very excited about this as well! I can't wait to share the after picture! Here's to hoping it will happen by the end of February!
Till next time!
