You Will Need (8 things)

  • Wood
  • Wood Glue
  • Wood Screws
  • Wood Filler
  • Paint
  • Hooks
  • Drill
  • Wooden Bracket(s)

Steps (5 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Begin by flipping the keyhole on your purchased wooden brackets. Simply unscrew, and place so that the brackets can now hang upside down.

  2. 2

    Use leftover wood the same depth as your wooden brackets, and cut to the desired custom length. If you are purchasing new wood, you can have it cut to size at your hardware store.

  3. 3

    Attach wood piece and brackets (as many brackets as you want dividers) using wood glue and wooden screws. Drill pilot holes before sinking your screws.

  4. 4

    Use a little wood filler (if necessary) to fill any unsightly cracks, and paint your shelves.

  5. 5

    Add hooks to the underside of your shelves. Attach shelves to wall using the keyholes on your brackets to hang. Presto! Useful, cute, inexpensive, and customized to your spaces!
