“T” is for Teeny

April 6, 2011

I built a teeny, tiny tower.

A storage tower for the bathroom.

Mainly to hide the extra toilet paper.

I used Ana White’s plans here and modified the size to 12″w x 26″h x 10″d.

Some pictures without the baskets:

I made the wire baskets from hardware cloth and rope and made the drop cloth liners to fit. 
Check my previous post here for the how-to on wire baskets.  Easier than you think.

This would be a knock off of Pottery Barn’s Caleb floor storage:

I’ll save the $249 plus shipping and make my own thanks.
More importantly I was able to make the tower fit precisely into the space we have, cost aside that’s the beauty of making your own pieces.

I painted it with two coats Behr French Roast paint and primer in one.

    I'm sitting here and almost crying. I have looked HIGH and low for storage that would fit between my toilet and pedestal sink. It has been a frustration of mine for 3 years. I have about the same amount of space. I SO NEED TO MAKE THIS… A million thank you's for posting this 🙂

    Perfect! Looks as good as the PB one but it's even better since it fits EXACTLY in that space. Nice work. Off to see how you made those baskets now.
