Low Hanging Fruit by any other name

I guess it's called Low Hanging Fruit for a reason.

I'll take it – the fruit is just as sweet and with (almost) no effort you can see some pretty cool results.

I've started my 2012 renovations a little early – I have shelving up in the Wine Room now.

The intention when I put some finished rooms into the Barn out back was to have a decent sized Wine Room where I can practice my craft (I hope I'm never done learning!) in a warm and comfortable space.

The ideal didn't quite get realized – the utility room where all the plumbing and electrical go sort of needed a little more room than I was hoping and that had to come from somewhere – so my Wine Room gave up about four feet of width that I wasn't planning on.

That means that I'll need some pretty serious Vertical Integration in my space.

These shelves are a good start.

Sherry and I have also started to design what the storage area in the Fireplace Room will look like – we'll be buying some of the building material later this weekend.

Should be fun!

I'll be sure to post the before and after photos here…. But please, don't hold your breath!
