Hi I’m Jenny, lover of weird old things – especially houses! Our family is slowly restoring our mid century ranch home in San Luis Obispo, California and doing our best to bring it back to its 60’s roots. This blog is where I share house projects and other mid century design related ramblings for fellow old house weirdos. Welcome!

Hi Edwin! Thank you for the kind words. Do you mean the toy shelf/changing table from this post: https://suburbanpop.com/2015/05/14/the-kids-shared-room/
If so, we did make it but I’m sorry to say I don’t have a DIY for it! We copied the basic dimensions/design of a Netto changing table and used birch plywood. Sorry I can’t be of more help :)
