Desk DIY for boys

Hi everyone !
Salut tout le monde !
 

Today, I share with you a little tip to help you make a desk for your kid. 
Aujourd'hui, je partage avec vous une petite aide pour faire un coin bureau pour votre enfant.

I had a little space between the two expedit shelves I put in Josué's room. So I thought, why not put a desk in the middle ? So, I did.
Il y avait un peu d'espace entre les deux Expedit que j'avais mises dans la chambre de Josué et je me suis dit pourquoi ne pas faire un bureau à cet endroit. Alors c'est ce que j'ai fait.


But of course, the space between the two shelves was too small for a normal desk, and seriously where is the fun if I don't have to make it ? right ? haha.
Mais évidemment l'espace entre les deux était trop petit pour un bureau déjà fait. Et puis, où est le fun si c'est déjà fait ? hein ? haha. 


So I bought a simple board custom made, and put some chevron shelf liner on it and fixed 4 table legs.
Alors j'ai acheté une planche sur mesure et j'ai mis du vinyl chevron dessus. Et j'ai ensuite mis 4 pieds.
 

I bought a rail at Ikea and buckets to put all kinds of stuff that my boy could need to be crafty :)
 J'ai acheté une barre chez Ikéa et des petits pots pour mettre les crayons, les feutres, les ciseaux,...
 

I made two printables and put them on the wall.
J'ai ajouté deux petits printables que j'ai fait.  

So here it is :)
Et voila :)


I gotta say, I pretty happy about it.
Je dois que je suis plutôt contente du résultat !
