Pass through door to be closed off.


I recently closed off an unused pass through door. Instead of simply sheetrocking the opening I decided to incorporate a built-in book shelf. Instead of books, it now holds all our DVD/CD's. You can never have too much storage space.

i actually did 3 of these (floor to ceiling) in a big farmhouse with lots of kids and a riding academy to run.
one in the bathrooms, for towels, and two in a long hallway.
it's why my ultimate house will have some walls with 2x8 studs.

nice job, RR. keep up the good work.

p.s. (thanx, eds., for pix.)
