Kitchen Organizer

Here's a project that I finished a while back.  Introducing the kitchen organizer!  Can you guess where I got it?  /coughurbanoutfitterscough.  This one was pretty simple.  There was no need to drill any holes in the organizer, since it came with metal hanging loops fastened to its back.  So, I measured the distance between the loops and marked their locations on the wall in such a way as to put this pretty obvious phone jack between them.

Next, I kept incrementally drilling holes in the wall at the marked spots until I got a size that was large enough to hammer in some IKEA anchors that have some weird non-metric sizing convention.  The organizer hangs nicely on two anchored screws that are protruding from the wall just a tiny bit.

Here is the final result, with items stashed away!  I was glad I that didn't try using those EZ anchors like I did with the red shelf; although the IKEA anchors are permanent, the damage they did to the surrounding wall was much less significant and it was easy to get them to go "straight" into the wall.

More projects coming your way... with not as successful results (as is the Emily way).
