The front hall closet used to be huge but half of it needed to house the new duct work that was installed last spring for the new furnace. So this ugly metal duct was the first thing you saw as soon as you came in the front door. None of our guests mentioned this hideous feature, though, for which I am grateful. We pondered the possibilities of putting in a shallow closet to hold the mop or the vacuum hose or something similar, but it would only be about an inch and a half deep ... not very usable space! Peter put on his toolbelt and started building. He framed in the duct side so it'll look like hallway, and built a small closet for coats and shoes. It's almost finished!
It's almost finished, yes, but the motocross track needs tending to and a friend of a friend has loaned us a Bobcat for a few days. Is there anything more fun than boys digging in the dirt with motorized toys?!?! Stay tuned for the finished closet ...
Glad that no shoes will fall to the basement below. Scooby must be wondering what is going on now:)
