Bar shelves are done ✨✨ I had a crazy idea back in May to get more use out of our 9.5 foot bar that’s too tall to comfortably sit at. We had four bar stools that I loved but no one EVER sat here and it just became a catch all for toys, tools and scrap wood. There were things under it and on top of it. Swipe all the way to the end to see the before (staged for pictures 😂) But one day, browsing Pinterest I saw a kitchen island with shelves and the light bulb went on! I knew I could make shelves that looked intentional but would also be more functional than what we currently had. I learned some new skills along the way and created something I am so proud of. We still have space for two bar stools, I can easily access my binders and Jackie’s toys and books are all right within reach 🙌🏻 the bins on the top shelves were gifted from @sortjoy and they are incredible! What do you think? Is this something you would do in your house? I’ve linked everything else - supplies, baskets, binders, bins in the LTKunder100 LTKfamily LTKhome
