I've been looking for something to do with my (average) frontroom closet and THIS IS IT! I can't wait to try this. I have so many scraps in my garage from bunkbeds and stuff. My books are driving me INSANE in the hallway shelves and we have a TON of books. I'm gonna post mine on my blog (Hope you don't mind) and I'll credit you for the idea. I LOVE this.Good Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07387980882574193208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-84979305238590721922011-06-14T23:18:08.056-04:002011-06-14T23:18:08.056-04:00Love this!!

You could give the space another use if you occasionally put up a tension rod with a curtain, halfway up from the cushion. Then your little Bub could do a puppet show from inside. Just an idea!
