How to get More Storage

I don't think there are very many people that couldn't use another storage cabinet!     Trouble is,  you can't really loose the space that a new cabinet would take up,  right?    If you can spare loosing 6" into a room,  then this cabinet is for you!   Look at how little space my new cabinet comes out into the entry,  in fact it takes less space than the table I had there before.

H made my cabinet with a pair of yard sale shutters  ($4 for all)  and $58  for  lumber.    It is made from 1x4x8's and took an afternoon to assemble.  

Look at all the storage!     I had one like this in another house we lived in that was on a small wall in the kitchen.   I put a vintage door on my 36" x 8' tall storage unit.....H built that one too!    

Why is the right side of the cabinet so empty? 

Because I have left plenty of room to  put my collection of sheep in there when I change out the decor in the entry.

The shelves are wide enough to store glasses....candles.....you are only limited by the 4" shelves.

The left shows the table that I had there before.    I always felt like I needed to fill in the space left under the shelves above the table.
 Now,  in the photo  on the right,  you can see I have a cabinet the length of the shelves above it and a less cluttered look.

I am also making changes to the other side of the entry.....be back with a post when I'm finished.

I have a English Cottage Garden theme in the entry and I thought my green depression glass was perfect for the shelf above my new cabinet!
