13 - Side Table & Add'l Shelf

There is quite a bit of space between the front end of the couch and the driver's seat. The floor of that space turns out to be a pretty good place for our cat's litter box. Adding a "table" over the space helps hide the litter box some as well as give some extra surface to set things on.

I found the shelf at IKEA. The size was just right so I didn't have to do much sawing to fit, and the color is a pretty good match to the rest of the decor. I mounted the shelf/table to the wall using a "L" bracket underneath. The table sits on the end panel of the couch held in place with double-side tape.

There was enough shelf material left over to make a small corner shelf for use from the rear side of the bed. Now the person on that side has a place to put their glasses or book at night. It is mounted with glue and a couple of small "L" brackets on the top that aren't easily seen from below.
