Overview

This is the Ultimate Craft Desk Junior. This desk was designed by crafters for crafters. It's perfect for Cricut projects, scrap booking, sewing, and so much more! Just like it's bigger version, it has 16 cubes for storage but the length is trimmed down to only seat 1 adult on each side. It seats 2 adults very comfortably with room for plenty more around the table.

This desk has a large desktop measuring 58" wide and 58" long. The desk is 38.5" tall and is just the perfect height for a standing craft desk, which can become a sitting craft desk with optional stools. This desk easily fits 1 stool on each side (2 total) with plenty of room for adults to be comfortable and have some elbow room.

Make this desk your own by configuring the cubes to your liking and choosing the desired table top finish.

NOTE: This desk only fits 1 person on each side. Like the Ultimate Craft Desk, however, it still has eight 13" cubes on each end (total of 16 cubes!) that are completely configurable as follows:

For each cube, you can choose:

• Leave Empty
• Double Drawers
• Cabinet
• Wine Bottle / Cricut vinyl holder
• Removable Bins
• 12" x 12" Scrap Book Paper Holder

Additional Options include:

• Under Table Power Strips in 2 or 4 locations
• Large On Table power strips

Shipping

Shipping Overview

We build each desk to order and deliver them ourselves across the continental United States (for zones 1-5). For Zone 6 orders, we crate up the desks and freight ship them, and we include extra insurance coverage to ensure the desk gets delivered in the same shape we sent it in.

How long does it take to get my order?

We usually ship in 6-12 weeks from the time you place your order. Sometimes, however, life happens, and in those cases, we will do our best to reach out in advance to keep you updated.

How does the desk come "mostly assembled"? Well, the answer also answers one of the biggest questions that we get. "How on earth can I get that desk through my front door or even through the door to my craft room?" When the desk gets to your door it is in three pieces: a left base, a right base, and a desk top. Each base is only about 20" wide with blankets and shrink-wrap and will easily fit through any door way. The desk top with it's braces on the bottom is only about 6" wide with its blankets and shrink-wrap.

Each of the bases already has all of the cube configurations installed and is wrapped in blankets and shrink-wrap. The desk top is also wrapped in blankets and shrink wrap and has cardboard corner protectors. If you get a crated delivery to zone 6, your desk is in these same three pieces, wrapped in blankets and skrink-wrap and then placed in a custom built crate. Each of the bases weighs 75-100 pounds depending on the 6 or 8 cubes for the size you selected and all of the cube configurations you selected. The cabinets and drawers really add a lot of weight. When we do white glove service, we typically use appliance moving straps that help a lot. The table tops are 75-100 pounds as well, depending on the size. These desks require two moderately strong people to lift.

What's involved in assembly?
If you are putting the desk on hardwood floors, you should add the felt pads we provide to the bottom of the feet prior to taking the desk into the craft room. After placing the two bases in your craft room, remove the shrink wrap and the blankets. Remove the shrink wrap and the blanket from the desk top. Make sure the bases are close enough so you can set the desk top on top of the bases before picking up the desk top. Pick up the desktop from the long sides. That makes no sense you are thinking, because its natural to have someone stand on each of the short ends and pick it up right? Well, resist that temptation. Learn from my mistakes (and blood blisters). The ends of the table where the bases are is the best way to get your fingers pinched. I mentioned above how heavy these desk tops are ... so trust me, the safe place to pick them up is on the long sides with your hands completely between the bottom braces. Set the top down on one side and then the other. Go around the desk, nudging the bases or the top where you want it to make sure the bases are flush against the braces and the top hangs over the bases evenly. Next, walk around the desk and make sure the desk top lays flat on the bases. If there is a gap, adjust the feet by screwing them in or unscrewing them to level it out BEFORE proceeding to the next step. Next, simply screw in 2-3 screws (based on desk size) into the braces located under the desk top, into each base. This step prevents the desk top from sliding if someone bumps it. At this point we typically dust each of the bases and the tops to wipe off any dust or fuzz from the shipping blankets.
