Cubby Kitchen Rack by Sawdust 2 Stitches

Hey  friends,  I am sure  that many of you have organization on the brain.  I am a firm believer that you can create a organized space, AND make it beautiful at the same time.  In fact all of the pieces in my  home are aimed to be decorative while still serving a very useful purpose.  These new kitchen racks are no exception!  This Pottery Barn Inspired Cubby Rack is  intended to clear up some cupboard space and use these in the dining room and or kitchen!   Modular Kitchen Shelving by Sawdust 2 stitches

Meet Corey

Hi everyone, my name is Corey, and I have a problem. I can’t leave well enough alone… The best therapy usually involves a variety of power tools. So, in the few “spare” moments I am not entertaining my two beautiful, rambunctious, boys, I can typically be found hunched over a sewing machine and/or covered in sawdust. All in the efforts to create a perfect balance of aesthetics and practicality in our home.
