How to hide an ugly pipe using pegboard / One Room Challenge Week 5

Remember week 1 of the One Room Challenge? One of my objectives was to install a pegboard to hide that ugly pipe.

Well, I did it (I mean, we did it because I couldn’t have done it alone! Thanks, honey 😊)

For the One Room Challenge, hosted by Calling it Home, I’m giving my craft room a makeover. Or more accurately, I’m making a craft room that can be called a craft room! You can see the recaps here:

So first, I bought 2- 2×3. They were the same depth as the pipe. We installed the 2×3 using screws. We also used wall anchors when the 2×3 were not aligned with the wall studs.

Then we cut the pegboard to the size we needed. We also used spacers to make sure the 2×3 didn’t block any holes of the pegboard.

Once installed, we fixed the Billy CD/DVD shelf unit that we had for sooo long on both sides. But the pictures for that will be for the reveal week only! 😉

Now, here’s a sneak peek at what the pegboard looks like. Can you believe I have too much space?

Any suggestions on what I could hang on my new pegboard?
