Years ago, my wife and I re-furnished our son’s room. We basically turned it into a shop. Instead of a desk, we bought a metal workbench with a “hutch”. A tall workshop cabinet became his closet.
A tool box with several drawers was his dresser. I hung old valve covers and a creeper on his wall.
Now, he is 27. And the above mentioned items are being used in his garage for their intended purposes. Turned out to be a good investment.
