Floating Book Shelf

July 3, 2012 0 Comments

My oldest daughter needed some more room for books. She wanted a floating book shelf. So I made one.

First I had to gather all the peices

I got a book from Goodwill. A 5″ L bracket from home depot. A pack of wood screws. I had the hot glue gun. You could use any type of glue.

1) Trace around the L bracket

2) Notch out the book frame, and cut out some pages to sink the bracket into

3) Screw the bracket in place. Put some screws thru the pages to hold them together.

4) Put some glue on the cover and close up the book.

5) Mount the book to the wall. Make sure to mount it into a stud.

Now just stack your books ontop of it and your all done!!
