Create more space

By insidesign

Our bathroom has minimal space; by using the window and putting in shelves we created an area to place baskets to store our toiletries.

This project cost under $15, one shelf cut into 3 parts; 2 for window shelves, 1 for under sink + 12 small brackets with screws. We now have a place to put our bathroom things. Voila!
