Our bathroom has very little extra floor space so the scale has been leaning up against the wall.

Taking adavtage of extra wall space behind the door to safely store the scale.

I constructed it like a very short drawer. Cherry sides with 3/16" plywood bottom.

Damn, this is a good idea! I used to lean mine against the wall but one day it slipped and ended up shattering (was 99% glass, whoops). Since then I’ve got one flat on the floor but it’s a little in the way, so something like this would be great!

Our toddler messing with this glass scale was the inspiration! I bet an off the shelf letter holder would work.
