Hack #18 Simple Bed Cubby Shelves.

The newer 22MLE models come with bed cubbies on either side but older ones don’t. This simple mod, from Tracy Crawford – admin of the ‘Grand Design Imagine XLS 22mle Owners’ FB page, lets you add them to any model.
They are $8 cd shelves from Joann Fabric (available from many stores).

You can leave them unfinished or stain them to better match the paneling around the bed.

Line the inside bottoms with felt and hang them on the sides – high enough they are not in the way while sleeping. Tracy hung hers with Industrial Velcro. You can hang them using other methods but be sure they won’t ‘let go’ in the middle of the night and come crashing down on you.

If you are more handy, take a look at my nod to add bigger, lower cubbies too Hack #13.
