I had thought of trying something similar with the shelving myself, but seeing it done definitely gives me more motivation!
Nice work. I definitely like the idea of using the tension rod for the TV -- elegant solution, and something I may just have to use myself...
Thanks!

Blinds
Somehow the image never made it to my original post. Can't seem to make it work.

Used your basic idea on the "kitchen" side of the wardrobe, modifying things a bit to make a deeper shelf for the microwave (pics posted elsewhere). So Thank You very much for the idea
I was going to use your idea for the TV, when I stumbled onto something else entirely: folding shelves that are "over-the-door". They fit perfectly on the bathroom wall, and with two shelf heights I plan to watch TV with the set on the lower shelf (upper shelf folded) and then either move it to the upper or put it away when going to sleep, and leaving the upper shelf available for a clock or whatever else.

Like the folding shelf
Your idea looks very cool. For us however that folding shelf would interfere with our sleeping arrangement. We sleep with our heads behind the bathroom wall because we built a portable ramp for our dog to be able to come onto the bed. This way when she jumps up she lands on the foot of the bed. If we turned around she would be jumping on our chests. Hence, my husband would sit up in bed and hit the shelf. You did however provide a new thought for our microwave. We are rethinking making a deeper shelf as you did.

Meijer Online (meijer.com). Search for "neu home over-the-door" and you'll see there's a 1-shelf and a 2-shelf model (as well as some other things you might like!)
I chose the 2 shelves for flexibility, I figure I can always fold an unused shelf against the wall, but having a choice for height made sense. Very light weight, but feels well made and sturdy (aluminum).
Meijer happened to have the best price at the time, and there was a coupon for free shipping

Makes sense. For our dog, we found a nice ottoman (can't recall who's suggestion that was) that he uses to get up onto the bed. Otherwise we sleep in the "usual" arrangement.
I think there's enough of a lip on the shelves I got that they might be able to hang off the wardrobe; I'll check for others who sleep the same way you do.
The deeper shelf works great, just takes a little work with a hack saw to cut the shelf and horizontal bar down to size.
