Instructions
Step 1
Nail, screw or pocket hole the sides of the shelf to the bottom.
Step 2
From back, attach shelf pieces to back with glue and nails or screws. All outside edges should be flush.
Step 3
Use 2" screws from back to attach dowels. TIP: First predrill holes all the way through the 3/4" plywood from the front where you want the dowels placed. Then flip over, insert screws, line up dowels centered on screws, and attach.

Great project!
Absolutely love this project! It'll be perfect for my upcoming laundry room makeover. Just a question, though: where did you get the flat metal piece that goes across the front? It adds such a nice finishing touch!
