I'm sure you could leave it as is, but you could always stack them and do a little test before you start cutting!

I can't find anything available for a corner in my bedroom that doesn't look cheap and flimsy, or like it belongs in a bathroom. What did you use to cut it down, and do you have any tips to make it less challenging? I was thinking of using a handheld circular saw or a jigsaw as I don't have a table saw set up at home. Would either of these work? I certainly have the space in the corner for 21"x21", do you think I'd be better off leaving them as is, or will it be too tippy?<br /><br />Desiree B.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852346585896978657.post-53032453457521870752013-06-10T11:18:03.473-04:002013-06-10T11:18:03.473-04:00What a great idea!What a great idea!Melanie @ Live from B5https://www.blogger.com/profile/05998823702371563983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8852346585896978657.post-89162164560600287222013-06-09T07:27:20.261-04:002013-06-09T07:27:20.261-04:00Was looking for a corner unit for a walk-in wardro...Was looking for a corner unit for a walk-in wardrobe. i want to put cupboards either side.
