From old hatboxes

From old hat boxes we build a beautiful wall shelf. Just tinker with. The materials are easy to get and not expensive.

What you need for the wall shelf:

  • Hatboxes in different sizes (eg via Amazon)
  • Wrapping paper and wallpaper leftovers
  • double-sided adhesive tape
  • cutter
  • Screws with matching dowels (2 each per hatbox)
  • washers
  • Drill with matching drill attachment

And that's how easy it is:

1. Glue hat boxes with beautiful papers and wallpaper, z. B. inside or outside. The easiest way to apply paper is with double-sided tape. Cut off protruding edges with the cutter.

2. Drill two holes through the hatboxes into the wall.

3. Put the hat boxes aside and put the dowels in the wall.

4. Screw the hatch boxes through the pre-drilled holes with washers.

Done is the wall shelf!
