This is a functional & fairly easy home improvement project on how to customize and accessorize an awkward nook in your house.
Before, there was a wasted space in the hallway next to the kitchen which was, with a little creativity, the perfect spot for the kids backpacks/shoes. After drawing out the plans, wood transformed this space into this backpack station. A little board & batten polished off the look:
Black hooks were purchased at Hobby Lobby
Ready to accessorize the space? Vinyl numbers!
Don’t they just complete the look?
We simply designed & cut them from our vinyl cutter, instant customization and an obvious spot for each kiddo from oldest to youngest to store their goods.

This is just too damn cute. I don't think there is a Hobby Lobby in my area but I'm sure they probably have a website!!!
