If you want to make a shelf, but have no clear idea what it should be like, why don’t you try making one from our collection (or at least use them to inspire you)!?

The term ‘shelf’ means a horizontal surface on which we can hold some objects. Shelves can be hung on the wall using brackets, placed inside cabinets between the sides, or stand on vertical supports. They are a very useful piece of furniture - they can be decorative, the items kept on them don’t get in your way and are in a visible place as well, they don’t take up much space hanging on the wall, and inside cabinets they divide space into multiple compartments. Another good features of shelves is that they are not complicated to produce, so they can be made by both beginners and amateurs, even in less equipped workshops. Due to the fact that shelves are among the most common furniture pieces in both private homes and workplaces, we have drawn several plans and offered them here to you.
