DIY Craft Desk - Revisited

(Please forgive my poor tutorials- I've never been talented at teaching. But I will answer your questions if you have any!)

Hello! I've been getting consistent emails and comments on older posts about my DIY craft desk. I thought it would be helpful to put together one complete post with all the details, to help those who'd like to consider this project.

Costs & Materials:

2 of these Cubicle Storage units from Target $50 now, I spent $40.
1 sheet of MDF, 1" thick, about $25 at Home Depot

"Conversation with Smaug" by JRR Tolkien
