2nd floor cabinets and lights
I've started building cabinets for the back wall of
the 2nd floor. I'm building the boxes and hope to
get the doors from Home Depot. I first did some practice
shelves in the living room.
We've also got lights and a fan on the second floor now.

Lower cabinets on the back wall and above will be built in shelves to the ceiling. I should be able to fit all my books on the 10' X 10' wall.
We'll probably cover the electric panel with a tapestry of some sort. Nothing too solid.
 

Not in the tower, but a few pictures of the test shelves that I built in the living room. The lower cabinets I made a few years ago, but the shelves I just installed.
I didn't have any ideas for molding on the shelf above the door, so I by-passed that part..
 
There will be cabinet doors for the middle three sections, and they will be flanked by sets of drawers in the narrow cabinets.
The ceiling light fixture is a bit gothic, and matches the lights in the stair wells.
 
Going for more of an inventor's look with the fan. I'd been looking and looking. When I saw this one, I knew I'd buy it.
Father did a great job fitting the steps. Now we need to figure out nosings, etc. Still, much nicer than the osb that's underneath.
