The Lego Client

I recently completed a project for a client who seriously needed Lego storage. Like I do for all clients, I presented my ideas and we worked together to find the solution that worked best for him. My client is 6. I may not have charged him for my time, but he did pay for some of his new design. We worked hard together. We even bonded over the week it took us to sort through it all. I loved watching his excitement in finding a new home for each piece. Most of all, I love that I won't have anxiety anymore when I walk into this room which used to have a hodge podge of bins ALL OVER the floor. Project: Get it off the floor. Mission complete.











I captured a pic of us toward the end of our sorting. My client decided where he wanted everything. I know this was his favorite part.





This little sweetie is a Master Builder. In the midst of the organization, he decided to buy himself a second Lego table. In December 2016, I posted a DIY Lego table. I used the same system to create this second one (see DIY post for step by step). I cut the legs down from a dining table. I used a retractable utility knife to cut some base plates, so it would fit perfectly. BEFORE you gorilla glue the pieces to the table, you MUST attach with Lego bricks to space them properly. Don't skip this step! Place a heavy book on each plate to keep it pressed down. That's it!
