Corner shelf made of wood. Do-it-yourself corner shelf - manufacturing technology, ideas and recommendations on how to make a shelf correctly

There are many ways to make a corner shelf. All of them are quite simple and accessible to everyone. Of course, a complex product with many decorative carved elements and other decorations can only be performed by a professional. However, an ordinary angle, which is in no way inferior to factory products, is very easy to create with your own hands.

In work you can use the following materials:

Chipboard. Laminated sheets are used. The material is convenient because it does not require processing. Do-it-yourself shelves from it are easy to make at home.
Plywood. Plywood shelves are probably the easiest option you can imagine. At correct processing the furniture will turn out to be very beautiful.
Boards. A correctly made corner made of wood will delight the eye for generations. Due to the simplicity of the product, you can safely give preference to this material.
Drywall. A built-in corner will be obtained from it, that is, the product will be stationary structure... Advantages - no need for a large number of tools and ease of use.

There are 2 main types of shelves: wall and floor. The difference between the two is clear. Both types are easy to DIY.

Basic principles of creating furniture from wood materials

Below are the drawings of products that are easy to do with your own hands:

Regardless of what material is chosen, plywood, chipboard or natural wood, the following tools are needed in the work:

jigsaw;
screwdriver;
furniture conductor.

Also, the order of work does not differ:

Preparation of parts. The corner shelf has walls and shelves themselves. All parts must be cut from the material used. Then, holes are made through the furniture jig for the subsequent fastening of the parts to each other.
Assembling the product.
Finishing work.

Features of working with chipboard

If you decide to make a do-it-yourself shelf from chipboard, then you need to purchase a furniture edge. This is a special material that is attached to the ends of the products. Thanks to it, the product will be protected from moisture, it will not swell and crack after a couple of years of use.

The fastening of parts to each other is carried out using self-tapping screws, metal corners or confirmations. The choice remains with the employee. It is important to make all measurements correctly - if, working with a tree, the wrong hole can be repaired, the chipboard will not "forgive" mistakes.

Wooden shelf

When creating a shelf made of wood with your own hands, several details must be taken into account:

Correct selection wood - regardless of the type of wood, the wood must be carpentry, that is, have a moisture content of no more than 15%.
The tree must be processed. After the parts are prepared (cut to size, supplied with all required holes etc.), they are processed with sandpaper or angle grinder, opened with varnish. Before that, you can apply a stain to give the product shades of valuable species. The varnish is applied in several layers. The first one is unpaved. For it, you can use either a highly diluted substance used, or a special primer.
Parts can be fastened in several ways: using dowels, making special grooves, or with self-tapping screws. Often hinged shelves are designed in such a way that it is possible to connect opposite walls using the shelves themselves, without sacrificing the reliability of the product.

The drawings presented in the section on chipboard shelves are also applicable to natural wood. Here are some ideas for what kind of wooden shelves you can make yourself:

Plywood is a lightweight and reliable material

Many people prefer to make shelves from plywood, as from the most affordable and easy-to-use material. For example, the product shown below can be cut in 15 minutes if you have a jigsaw. All that remains is to cover the plywood shelves with paint and wait until it dries.

It is very convenient to create hanging products from plywood - it is lightweight and does not require serious fixation. And with the skills and patience, you can even make a real work of art from this material.

Such compositions are cut with a knife. The work is very painstaking and requires a lot of attention. Such a plywood shelf is suitable for those who need not only a functional, but also an original piece of furniture. You can find stencils for patterns on the Internet. Here are a few elements that might come in handy:

Drywall shelf

You can make a stationary, non-movable shelf from gypsum cardboard with your own hands. The principle of its creation is simple: a frame is made of metal or wooden slats, on which prepared parts from plasterboard are attached.

In work you will need:

Stationery knife - it will cut drywall.
Hardware plasterboard-wood or plasterboard-metal, depending on what material is chosen for the frame.
Putty, putty knife, dilution container.
Metal corners, the side of which is equal to the thickness of the plasterboard used.
Frame materials - wooden slats or metal corners.
Level, tape measure, pencil.

How to make a corner shelf according to the instructions with your own hands:

The installation locations of the slats are marked on the wall. All markings must be done as smoothly and accurately as possible. Each one needs to be controlled by level.
The frame is attached.
Prepared plasterboard parts are installed.
A metal corner is attached to the ends and sealed with putty.
The finished corner is colored to taste.

The space in the corners often remains unused, despite the fact that in many modern houses there is an acute question: "what to do with the constantly accumulating trifles?" It is for such situations that there are stylish and practical corner shelves. They not only help turn a useless corner into a convenient storage for books, decor and the like, but they can also serve as a decoration and stylish accessory for any room.

In this article, we have collected several examples of functional and beautiful corner shelves that look great in the design of the living room, kitchen, bathroom, hallway, etc. Wall-mounted and floor-standing, recessed and suspended, shelving and shelving, modern corner shelves come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes and styles to perfectly complement your home.

So, you want to save space in your apartment? Don't like the emptiness in the corner of the interior? Want to make your room design more unique?

Long gone are the days when handicraft furniture production was considered the lot of very poor people. Each apartment or house had cabinets, walls, shelves and other furniture made according to a single sample. What kind of design could we talk about with this approach?

Choose today suitable furniture easier, but it does not always correspond to the wishes of the owner or the preferences of the hostess. In addition, it often happens that exactly what is needed and cannot be found, for example, a suitable hinged shelf. In this case, there are only 2 options: to order its production in the workshop, hoping that you will be understood and the product will be of proper quality, or you can make shelves on the wall with your own hands, which will be a good and convenient addition to the conceived design.

Types of wall shelves

Thanks to the modern universal tool a craftsman can make almost any shelf, even in an apartment, let alone work in his workshop. However, before taking on the tool, it is important to decide on the type of shelf being designed. This will help the table, which describes design features wall shelves and their area of application.

Wall shelf type	Description
Classic	It is generally accepted that the classics are part of ancient culture that has come down to us. It is also called a generally accepted model of style. Shelves manufactured in classic style, are easy to manufacture and uncomplicated in shape, so they are easy to make at home.
	Corner shelves have a triangular shape and are attached to two walls at once. Most often this is a small structure placed in a bathroom or room, where other types of shelves will get in the way. Also, corner shelves can be external.
Hinged	Hanging shelves are intended only for hanging on a flat surface and are most often located above the average level. This arrangement allows you not to occupy the free space of the room.
Floor	Floor shelves can not only stand on legs, but also, for greater stability, be attached to the wall, especially when they are narrow and high. Most often these are shelves such as whatnots or vertically arranged moduses.
	The word modus is often used to refer to a variety of forms. For this reason, shelves with different sizes the parts used were called modes. Sometimes it can resemble abstract art. Of various kinds modes can be found in one style or another of the room.
Exclusive	This is not a separate section, but a collection of everything extraordinary and non-standard. You can meet shelves from old suitcases, an outdated TV set, and even water pipes... There is no limit to imagination.

Wooden shelves on the wall

Wood is an excellent material, as a shelf made from it will turn out to be attractive, solid, ergonomic and practical. Although the rapid development of scientific and technological progress, as well as the appearance on the market of new technologies and innovative materials didn't use natural wood less popular and in demand, yet it is still in demand among lovers of natural beauty and style.

The advantages of natural furniture solid wood enough, and it's not just attractive appearance but also in high performance, thanks to which wood has been used for many centuries both for construction purposes and for the manufacture of original interior items. Even if you don't have a lot of experience in joinery work, you can make a beautiful wooden shelf. If you are a beginner, then it is best to start with this universal building material, taking as a basis soft, inexpensive types of wood intended for the manufacture of furniture.

Manufacturing

First of all, you need to think over the dimensions of the shelf being made and decide on the place where it will be located, only after that purchase the boards. If the structure is assembled from the material at hand, then you will have to adjust to its size.

Of course, you can't do without a tool. The minimum is a wood saw and a Phillips screwdriver. Of course, with such a set of tools, there is nothing to tackle the manufacture complex design.

To collect something solid and beautiful, you will need:

Jigsaw or hand saw	It will be more convenient to work with a jigsaw, but if it is not available, then you can use a standard hacksaw for wood with a fine tooth. With this tool, blanks for the future shelf will be cut.
Grinder or a set of skins of different grain sizes	It will take an hour manually to do what the grinder will do in 5 minutes. With this tool, the workpieces are sanded, and then the entire shelf.
Electric drill	If shelves are made of chipboard, then self-tapping screws or confirmations cannot be screwed into such parts without first drilling a hole for this fastener. V wooden parts you also need to drill holes for self-tapping screws.
Screwdriver or screwdrivers	Only if the shelf is small and uncomplicated, you can painlessly tighten several screws or screws with a screwdriver. If there are a lot of attachment points, then it will be very difficult to do it manually. It is not recommended to use an electric drill for these purposes, since it will not be possible to control the screwing force.
	In addition to the fasteners themselves, it is advisable to buy plugs to match the color of the shelf. It is important to know that depending on the selected fasteners, the plugs are selected individually.
Wood varnish	Wood varnishes are different. Many people choose to use alkyd varnishes with additives of the urethane group, since it dries quickly (up to 12 hours) and is very durable, which is important for a product that will often be used.
Medium brush (40‒80 mm)	The shelf will need to be opened with varnish. At home, this procedure can be done with a brush. Since most wood varnishes are toxic and emit a strong odor, work should be done in a ventilated non-residential area.
Gon	With it, you can make all the corners even. If this tool is not already there, then you can check the correctness of the angles ceramic tiles... Accuracy will not, of course, be perfect, but still better than nothing.
Manual frezer	Making the wooden shelf more beautiful will turn out hand milling cutter, with which you can create a variety of decorative patterns on the corners, at the ends and in the middle of the product.

After purchasing wood, you need to inspect it in order to have an idea of how the manufactured shelf will look. The fact is that untreated boards are not very different from each other, but after applying the stain, dark places will appear more strongly than light places. If it is not possible to make sidewalls from one board, then pick up boards whose texture will be similar.

Let's consider making a shelf using an example. Let's say that we need a wooden wall shelf into 3 cells, the dimensions of which will be 100 cm wide and 40 cm high.

For the convenience of calculations, the depth of the product will not be calculated. The thickness of the board is 2 cm. The length of the self-tapping screws is 40‒50 mm.

So, we need to cut off workpieces of this length from the board:

50 cm - 2 pcs.
96 cm - 2 pcs.
26 cm - 2 pcs.

Now let's explain how we got such dimensions.

If everything is clear with 50 cm sidewalls, then the length of the remaining parts must be calculated. For example, 2 horizontal parts are 96 cm long. There is nothing complicated here either. With a shelf width of 100 cm, we subtract the thickness of the two boards used as side walls:

100- (2 + 2) = 96 cm.

In a similar way, we get the height of the jumpers (vertical 2 parts), with a height of the inner part of the shelf of 30 cm:

30- (2 + 2) = 26 cm.

It goes without saying that all paired parts (in our case) must be the same size.

Assembling a wooden wall shelf

Each part needs to be processed with a grinder, only then it can be fastened with other parts into a single structure. Hands must be clean, because untreated wood is very easily soiled.

Let's return to our diagram, in which you can see that the lower board is slightly raised above the lower level, for which there are 2 explanations: firstly, it makes the shelf more beautiful, and secondly, it protects the lower edge of the sidewalls from cracking when screwing in the screws. Usually this indent is within 1 cm, but if necessary, it can be increased. For security in the place where the self-tapping screw is screwed into lower part the sidewalls must be drilled in advance with a thin drill. In our case, they will be at a height of 2 cm from the lower edge of the sidewalls (1 cm indent + 1 cm to the middle of the thickness of the screwed board).

Now step by step about the assembly process.

Having raised the bottom shelf by 1 cm, the side parts are screwed to it one by one. It is necessary to ensure that when screwing in the self-tapping screws, they are located straight.
Turning the workpiece upside down, mark the position of the future shelves. If the sizes of the cells are the same, then we divide 96 cm by 3 (in our example, 3 cells). It will turn out to be 32 cm. We retreat from the sides by 32 cm and put on the board points into which the screws will be screwed (3 centimeters from the edge of the board). It is better not to draw a line, as it will be visible under a layer of varnish, but to apply small marks on the ends of the board.
In this position, jumpers are screwed to the bottom of the shelf.
The shelf is turned over and after checking the vertical position of the jumpers, they are screwed on.
Now it's the turn of attaching the sidewalls to the top bar.
So that the shelf is even, and subsequently it does not warp, in the lower part, with back side, you can fix the arrangement of parts with flat window corners... If the rear wall is attached, then the corners are not needed.

The assembled structure is painted with a stain, after which you can start varnishing.
The entire surface of the shelf must be cleaned of dust and dirt. After applying the first layer, check for lint. If there is, then you need to sand everything again with an abrasive cloth to remove them. If the varnish is thick and does not lay in an even layer, then it can be slightly diluted with a solvent recommended by the manufacturer.
In total, you need to apply 3 layers of varnish, with a frequency of 12 to 48 hours. This interval depends on the type of varnish used and the temperature. environment... In any case, you need to wait until it dries. Check the surface each time for bumps and grains of sand. If you notice something, immediately sand with an abrasive sponge until you remove the defect. Then you need to apply varnish again.
After the varnish has dried, it remains to fasten the hinges at the back, after which the shelf can be hung on the wall.

Making a corner wooden shelf

Corner shelves can be of very different heights, and have different amount levels.

Video: Making a corner shelf

Consider the sequence of making a wooden corner shelf from 20 × 50 mm slats.

After examining the slats, you need to choose the most even ones, with a minimum number of knots - 2 frames will be made of them, 40 × 70 cm in size. To make them you will need:

- 4 pieces 70 cm long;

- 6 pieces of 30 cm.

It is preferable to glue the details of the frames, clamping them with clamps.
Now it's the turn of making the shelves. They can be done:

- typesetting, gluing several strips, from which parts are then cut out the desired shape and outside they are edged with a curly rail;

- from a sheet of plywood;

- from laminated chipboard. In this case, the cut must be sanded and pasted over. furniture edge or somehow differently, at your discretion;

- from a snippet old furniture if the front is straight.

The shelves are screwed to the frames and varnished.
It remains to fasten the hinges and hang the made shelf in its place.

For a corner shelf, a set of 2 hinges, as shown, is best suited. If you hang the shelf on a loop with a wide ear, then you can move the shelf along the wall and put on a second loop.

DIY book shelf

Despite the fact that electronic devices are replacing printed publications from human life, many people still carefully keep books and magazines that are dear to their hearts, the storage location of which often leaves much to be desired. If you have such a situation too, then it will be useful to learn how to make bookshelves that would be functional and fit into the interior.

If you are not a specialist, then you should not immediately take up the manufacture of a complex structure. Next, we will look at the process of making a simple bookshelf from racks.

Stages of work

To work you need a tool:

screwdriver;
electric drill;
jigsaw or hacksaw for wood;
roulette;
construction square.

Concerning Supplies, then you will need:

slats 20 × 40 cm;
self-tapping screws for wood 3.5 × 45 mm (at the rate of 2 pcs. for one attachment point).

Now you can start making the shelf. The first step is to make "ladders" - side parts (and with a large shelf length, medium ones too).

The dimensions of the shelf will depend on how large the books will be stored on it. If the books are not large, then 20 cm wide shelves are enough to accommodate them. The height of the cells is selected so that it is convenient to take the book from the shelf. Also the height of the cells on different levels may differ. As for the height of the shelf, this is a matter of personal preference, but it is important to consider that although this shelf will be attached to the wall, it is still not designed to be suspended, so it will stand on a solid surface.

First, the slats are prepared, which will be used as racks, and the crossbars are already attached to them, for which holes are drilled along the edges of each plank with a thin drill.

Having screwed the cross member with one self-tapping screw, you need to check its position.

Having aligned the rail, it is fastened with a second self-tapping screw.

The assembled "ladders" are laid on the floor, and after checking the correctness of the angle, they begin to be fastened with slats, which are cut off according to the length of the structure.

Then the rest of the slats are attached.

The structure is lifted and fixed to the wall, after which the rest of the slats are fixed, used as shelves.

A shelf like this can hold many books.

The assembled shelf is designed for a large number of books, but if you need a smaller design, then you should pay attention to the video instructions and the photos of the products you like.

Flower shelves

You can often see people decorate their homes with artificial flowers, but still nothing can replace the freshness of natural beautiful plant... Many owners, trying to decorate the wall, let climbing plants, hang flowerpots from the ceiling or place them on shelves own design... The advantage of this approach is that it is possible to make something of your own, unique and fit into the interior of the room. Depending on the type of available colors and their quantity, the shelf is designed.

Of course, you immediately want to make something voluminous and beautiful, which is quite natural, but first you can try your hand at making a simple but neat shelf.

Manufacturing steps

We need a 120 × 25 mm board with a length of at least 130 cm. It will be more convenient to sand the board while it is intact.

After that, one edge must be cut so that the angle is right, and markings should be applied every 20 cm, clearly at an angle of 90 °. The building corner will help with this, but if it is not there, then you can use any solid object, the corners of which are straight, for example, ceramic tiles.

When cutting off a part, you need to hold the hacksaw at an angle relative to it. Keeping the hacksaw straight will make it difficult to make the cut straight.

For the manufacture of the shelf, we need 6 parts of 20 cm each.

Each detail must be cleaned with sandpaper from all sides. The blade used must not be coarse, otherwise the wood may be scratched.

Since the self-tapping screws will be twisted close to the edge of the board, in order for it not to split, you need to drill holes in these places with a thin drill.

The whole assembly process consists in fastening the parts with self-tapping screws. If PVA glue is available, then the joints must first be smeared with it, and, giving a minute for the glue to set, fasten the parts. When screwing in self-tapping screws, you do not need to apply excessive force so that the board does not split. It is enough that the screw head is flush with the board.

Since our shelf is wall-mounted, you need to screw fasteners to it.

Since the height of the shelves is small, and the structure is not very durable, climbing or short plants in small pots can be placed on it.

Such a product can be used not only for flowers. To prevent the shelf from getting dirty, it is best to open it with varnish.

Original shelves

If you want to diversify your interior, then comfortable, original and beautiful shelves can be made from various materials by hanging them in the study or in the living room. They will help you conveniently arrange a lot of things and can give your rooms a cozier look. You can make unusual shelves on the wall from wood, glass, plywood, fiberboard, pieces of tin, and even from water pipes.

We can say with confidence that unusual shelves are the embodiment of originality and exclusivity. However, in everything you need to know when to stop and understand that when designing a product, you often need to maintain the style of the existing style. But now it has become fashionable to divide a room into zones. After looking at the photos in which are embodied interesting ideas, you will take something as a basis, adding your own flavor.

Photos of the original shelves

TV shelf

It often happens that in small room well, just nowhere to put the TV. For example, a small kitchen is already crammed with furniture, it would seem, what kind of TV can we talk about. However, a way out can be a shelf located in a corner or on a free wall.

V modern concept When TVs were simply hung on the wall, a TV shelf is called a shelf located under the TV, on which a DVD player can stand. In one case or another, the shelf can be made at home. We will not dwell on simple shelves that can be placed under the TV, since we have already touched on the manufacture of similar ones in the article, but we will only consider the manufacture of one on which you can put a TV.

Let's start with the simplest thing - a plywood corner shelf attached to the wall. In our case, it will be installed near the window, and so that the curtain does not interfere, on the left side we will make a small recess for it. The corners of the workpiece need to be sanded, then all of it (or only the upper part) should be pasted over with self-adhesive tape with a pattern you have selected.

The fasteners must be screwed to the workpiece with self-tapping screws, through which it will be attached to the wall. It is necessary to choose self-tapping screws, the length of which will be slightly less than the thickness of the plywood sheet from which the workpiece was cut. In our case, the front fasteners are located below, and the rear ones are on top of the workpiece, but if nothing interferes with the bottom, then they can also be installed under the shelf.

Now the shelf needs to be placed at the required height and the attachment points should be marked on the wall. The shelf is retracted to the side and holes are drilled in the marked places.

We insert dowels into the holes so that they do not stick out from the wall.

Now you can attach the shelf.

The shelf must be level and the fixings are tight.

Now you can install the TV, and bring the wires down through the gap left in the corner.

Such a shelf does not need additional finishing and is immediately ready for use as intended.

In this article, we made a general overview of wall shelves and gave an example of making simple structures. If you want to see new ideas or need help, leave a comment at the end of the article.

The space problem is relevant for small-sized and large apartments... It is very difficult to fit everything you need in a limited square footage.It is almost impossible to imagine a house, office or apartment without comfortable shelves. The element plays an aesthetic, decorative role.

Shelves help free up space and diversify the familiar interior of the room.

Styles like this are discouraged complex shapes and intricate designs.

Shelves with additional elements can be used in living rooms. They can consist of several sections, or have unusual shape, for example, in the form of the letter "G".

Often, such furniture takes up not only the corner, but also some part of the wall.

You can decorate such furniture and in an original way cutting if you have experience in this business. The shelves located in the corner also differ in the presence back wall... It can be present, or it can be replaced by a wall. If there is a desire to preserve the wall decoration, then furniture wall it is still better to build.

It doesn't take much effort.

In this article, we will look at the process of building a corner shelf. classic form... This form is very simple and versatile. Its production does not even take two hours.

To get started, you need to decide not only on the shape of the product, but also on the material.
