Weekend Project: Over-the-door shelf DIY

Picture 10Picture 11

I saw this fun little project in Home Depot's flyer this week and thought how easy this would be to do for a weekend project. Make this shelf for above the doorway in the kitchen or bathroom (or wherever). A fun little way to create some cosy storage. Click here to read how.

This is really a really sharp over the door shelf. Love it. Gives the room some interest and has a bit of storage.

More than ever, I love the idea of having a door below my shelf. Makes me feel really high up :) or so I would think, since I don't actually have this. Thanks for sharing!
