Ok... so, while I'm at it. I was going to wait until this was ENTIRELY done, but, well.... it may never happen. I needed a desk to fit the space of my nook... storage and whatnot. So, I drew up some plans, bought everything, hubby did some cutting and screwing, and this is what we ended up with! I love it! And the rubbed wood showing thru is INTENTIONAL! I'm still planning on building drawers for the larger cubbies and a small table that slides out for the keyboard, but other than that... It's here. I'll update this post when it's truly complete.
