Cords snaking here, there and everywhere and the laptop propped against a chair, on the recliner, on the credenza and pretty much a tripping hazard! That was GET’s laptop! (not related at all but YES, he is a diehard Raider fan!)
This is my computer desk but he had nothing! Do you see the hook behind the chair for my purse?Another nook & cranny solution!
Our chairs are quite sturdy and have a solid stabilizing rung. Umm, I had a thought: I could place a shelf on the rung for storing his laptop!
GET went in search of a board to use for the shelf and came back with a salvaged pre-finished shelf onto which we traced the chair rung outline!
He then cut the board along the traced outline. Yes, that’s my picnic tablecloth! (RV’s don’t typically come equipped with a workbench so a picnic table often serves as a substitute.)
Nailed rubber feet to the bottom of the shelf in order to give it a snug fit and finally stained the one raw edge with a stain marker.
And there we go—GET’s laptop has a secure home! And convenient too since this chair sits beside his recliner .
A couple of my other “nook & cranny” storage areas:
Shoe holder for cleaning supplies in the narrow space beside the washer/dryer.
Wine glass racks in both corners under the living room cabinet.
Excuse me while I nose around for a nook or cranny for more of my books or sweatshirts or ???.
I LOVE your ingenuity!
