Been working on concealing the supply and drain pipes from the washing machine relocation.
Had to allow for the molding. Used this thing :
Now I'm pondering putting shelves into the columns. Either the inside or face.....
Or maybe just trim it out with molding and make the shelves inside the boxed in columns afterwards. I'm going to mount a row of coat hooks on the wall and put a bench between the low boxes with shoe cubbies or drawers or under it. There will be a sophet across the top, and shelves hung from that. The ceiling is 9'. The sophet will be 12", so maybe 18" below the bottom will look good and be useful.
