DIY : Invisible Bookshelves

January 6, 2013      10 Comments

Ever since we did this post on bookish gifts I’ve been obsessed with the idea of Floating Bookshelves. The  Umbra Floating Bookshelves are quite pricey,  so when I saw this DIY invisible bookshelf on Pinterst I had to give it a try and it worked like a charm ! Making 3 bookshelves cost ~15$  including the cost of nails and hammer/screw driver

  • L-Shaped Brackets (Home Depot, shelving aisle)
  • Screws/Nails
  • Hammer/Screw Driver

Since there are brick walls in my apartment I had to use screws with a masonry bit. I’m sure you can use a nail and hammer depending on the surface. This is how May December Home set hers up.
