done!

[susandennis]

This before and after makes the before look way better than it did and the after look not as good as it does BUT, I am happy with it and, honestly, that is all that matters.  I can hang more now than I could and the profile coming down the hall looks way nicer.

The instructions say to attach it to the wall. Er, no. It's steady enough. I couldn't get the wooden seat/shelf screwed in with the itsy bitsy screws so I used uglu to attach it.  Nobody's ever going to sit on it or pick it up by the bench so all I need it to do is not slide off. For $50, I'm happy.

Now I need to take the boxes - they sent it box in a box and wrappings down to the dumpster and I am done. Nice.

That looks pretty sweet. I really like your wall colors.

Thanks, I went from white walls to color nearly 10 years ago and I still love the color scheme. Here's the before/after of the whole condo... it's now really old itself but the paint's the same.
