We've made the decision to homeschool our almost 5 year old daughter starting in September. The dining room will be the school room, but I don't want to lose my table in the process. So I began looking for good storage options. I saw the Display-It-Storage Mirror on the PB Teen website and loved it! Right up until I choked on the price tag. I went inspiration hunting and found Ana's Willy bookcase plans. I modified the Highrise Condo Willy bookcase, added a base with lazy susan hardware and a top outfitted with crown molding. Then I bought some cork on Amazon to create a cork board on one side, a role of dry erase paper to create a dry erase board on the other side and framed them. On the back, I hung a bathroom organizer with lots of pockets for dry erase pens, push pins, pencils, tape, scissors, etc. Finishing touch was my daughter's choice of scrapbook paper for the inside backing.
