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.

It looks so good. Great imagination in planning and organising. Fantastic

I feel like the little girl from Despicable Me "Oh my Gosh, i gotta have it, I gotta have it".
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!!!
