I also hung the shelves on the wall which is such a great idea for storage. These are purchased from IKEA but I have made both Victorian Ash timber tops purchased from Bunnings.

One desk measures at 3.0m x 450mm

The other measuring at 3.5m x 450mm.

 

I had to have a join in the tops which had to be fixed and glued whist it was in the rooms

as i could not of got them through the door. The sheets I purchased were 2.4m x 900mm which I then cut them directly down the middle and

Re: looooong kids desk tops

Looks great and offers loads of new storage, which with kids toys you can never get enough of! 

 

Many thanks for sharing your latest handiwork @LePallet. I have featured it on our Project Gallery as I'm sure it will inspire plenty of other Bunnings Workshop community members to do something similar.

Re: Long desktops over storage drawers

That not only looks fantastic, but that storage is phenomenal. I've never really paid much attention to great storage ideas, but with a two-year-old and a bub on the way, it's now a priority. Many thanks for sharing and the inspiration, as I'll hopefully build something similar.

 

Well done.
