Making floating bookshelves can be quick and easy. It only requires some patience to get the measurements and cuts correct to use the wall space effectively.

Once you have all your supplies, the best place to work is outside or in a designated place like a garage or workshop. Or you can visit your local hardware store and they can cut the wood for you. Now you can get to work.

步骤1：测量墙壁空间

Start by measuring your space and having wood cut to size at your local hardware store. Here we used one piece of 1/2″ poplar cut 4″ wide, another piece of 1/2″ poplar cut 2″ wide, and another piece cut 1/2″ x 1/2″ wide. The length of the boards was custom cut to size for our space and will be dependent on your space and measurements. We made 2 shelves so we had 2 sets of wood pieces cut.

Step 2: Apply glue

将4英寸宽的木头平放在表面上。在其他2件（1/2英寸宽的片和2英寸宽的片）的边缘加入木胶。然后将它们固定在边缘的4英寸宽后盖板上。这将是“ L”形。从木头。让木胶干燥。

Step 5: Install the floating shelves

要悬挂架子，您可以用路由器在背面添加孔（如果您可以访问一个），或者可以将孔通过后部放置the shelf into the wall。Use a level to even out the shelves, ensure that you find the studs, and drill screws through the shelf directly into the wall.

艺术，图片，或您放在架子上的书籍可能会覆盖这些孔。或者，您可以选择架子后部的路由孔（或为您添加专业人士）。然后，您可以将螺钉直接放入墙壁上，然后以这种方式悬挂架子。

Step 6: Decorate

最后,您可以装饰你的货架将with the theme of the area. This project was for a child’s room and the shelves are decorated with small, lightweight book storage and cute animal decorations.

您还可以使用装饰品或书盖来隐藏安装货架时制造的任何瑕疵或孔。
