    Quick Bathroom Update: Part 3

    Claire RichardsonClaire Richardson

    Add shelving to your powder room to hold pretty toiletries. For something new, try making your own cabinet out of found objects.


    HOW-TO: Remove the back of an old wine crate or wooden box. Make shelves to fit inside the box, then add a bit of glamour by fastening a gilded frame onto the front of the unit. For an antique finish, spray-paint with Krylon Crystal Color.

    Buy a picture-hanging kit that includes hooks that can be attached to the back of the shelves. Make sure they can hold at least 50 to 100 pounds.
