Umbra 330633-560 Conceal Floating Book Shelf, Large, Silver

Product Information

Wood is a popular choice for floating shelves because it is strong, durable, and comes in a variety of finishes and textures. Not to mention, floating wood shelves can be stained or painted to match the decor of the room. Hardwoods like oak, maple, and walnut are often used for floating shelves, but softwoods like pine can also work well. Oak floating shelves are common choice due to their strength and stability.

To be extra clear, we used a measuring tape to measure exactly 7.5″ from the very bottom of this particular frame, which is exactly 22″ from the very bottom to the very top. Installing floating shelves is a relatively straightforward process that can be completed with just a few tools and materials. It can also be a fun DIY project for those who enjoy home improvement.A stylish and functional addition to any room in your home, these types of wall shelves provide both storage and visual interest in often-overlooked corners. Corner shelves come in a variety of shapes, including triangular, hexagonal, and curved. Don’t skip the planning part – either lay the shelves out on the floor to figure out your design or even grab a piece of graph paper to sketch it out.

Between these new invisible floating shelves and the picture ledges I’m using for books in the living room, I have space to add a few more new additions before I’m hunting for another perfect book storage solution! Once you have a plan, grab a pencil and a level to mark the four holes for your first shelf using the actual shelf as a template.When it comes to choosing materials for floating shelves, there are several options to consider.
