OK, not exactly perfect but dang near close. We had to go over to Whole Foods today, and there is a Container Store next door to it. I have been wanting to go in there and look at some things since the first time I saw it but never had time until today.
That place is so neat! They have all kinds of containers and shelving and racks and stuff. You could organize anything with stuff from there. I want to get some square plastic containers so I can organize my pantry. Right now everything is in empty coffee cans that I have covered with white paper. I want the square plastic ones so they will fit in there better.
Anyway, while we were in the Container Store, we saw this desk:
It is 34″ wide, and the space I have to put it in is 36″ wide. A perfect fit! See how it has that section that pulls out? I would have plenty of space for sewing , and when the day is done, I can set the sewing machine up on the next level, and push that lower one back in, out of the way. It even has a drawer for my scissors and pins and stuff. I am in love with this desk!
The only problem is that it only comes in dark chocolate wood color at that store. I went online and found it in oak, same price, at a different place.
The other solution I thought of was to go to Home Depot and get a piece of counter top and a small base cabinet. I could attach the counter top to the side of the dresser on one side, and set the other side on top of the base cabinet. I saw some really cool basket type drawers at the container store that would work well with that sort of set-up.
But, now, I think I will just go for the desk. That way, if I traded campers I could move it with me. What to do? What to do?
I like it, but I think better in oak. How much?
I’m looking for a small drop-leaf table and a chair. Don’t think I’ll be able to replace the 5er this year so it’s time for a face lift.
Hope Jim likes the truck improvements.
What about the arm?
I love container stores!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wish I was there too!
very cool desk
