I built a shelf to organize my horde of mostly useless junk

Before pic: I didn't do much planning or design. I kind of just went for it and measured as I made it.

Now that you've cleaned it up, remember: if it doesn't fit in a bin, it goes out to the bin

Not with all that new free floor space!

Looks good. Solid looking shelf and the boxes are neat

Clear boxes are the path to true enlightenment.

Maybe, in my experience they go cloudy scratchy after a few years.

A label on each container listing what's inside works just as well.

There is a big difference between mostly useless and all useless: mostly useless is slightly useful.

What is the stuff on the ceiling in the first picture?

I made 3D printed track lights for lighting up the photos I had frame on the wall. They worked okay but I used hot glue to hold the led in place while assembling so it would start to smell like melted hot glue after it had been running for while. They also fell down a few times and I gave up on it. I never got around to removing all sticky pads I used to mount them.
