Well I've never quite seen one that suited me.
I found a DIY project on pinterest that was close, using reclaimed wood with digits in it and reclaimed cabinet handles, but wasn't thrilled with loosing counter space. I also loved the roll down, gravity feed, date keeper ability of the skelter. But again you loose counter space.
So, I came up with this. It's a wall skelter. I made it with a cheap craft store wood shape, cut in half. I drilled two angled holes on each and inserted two dowel rods, which are glued in place. I then pained the whole thing to match the wall so it disappears, and the eggs show. "L" brackets hold it to the wall. also, the ends are even, level, with each other. Only the dowels are on a slight angle.
Whole thing cost me $4.
please excuse my white eggland eggs..... the girls haven't started
laying yet.
I hope it inspires you!
