I purchased plastic shelving at Target that didn't take to much time to put 
together.

Smile.

I also have used the plastic drawers, and milk crates that you can purchase 
that will stack together.

Done the Cinder Block thing too.

And The assembled furniture isn't that bad I have a desk, several 
bookshelfves and I had a bed and head board made out of the stuff when i was 
home at my oparents.

Hi all,

Great suggestion.  My parents resorted to the cinder block book shelves
too.  You can find these at garden stores I think.  You can also buy
shelving at household stores, but they do require assembly, and of
course, the instructions are in print and they have pictures, and the
language is semi-English/chinese or English/Korean or English/Spanish.
So, I don't recommend it, unless you're prepared to be an engineer and
not read the manual.  I think your cinder block shelving may be the
best bet for convenience and time-saving.  If you tell the lumber
department at the household store what you want the boards for, they
can saw them to fit.  You will need to measure your space in the house,
of course.  Then you probably want them either six or eight feet long.
Six would probably be easier to deal with both in transporting them and
in ease of building.  Good luck!

Ann P.
