Product Information

Good morning, I wanted to let you know that your post as chosen to be featured on the Oh my Heartsie Girls Wonderful Wednesday this week, it will also be Tweeted and has been Pinned for sharing. There was a central air vent on the floor where this middle frame was going to sit, and so I had to redirect the airflow. Update: We actually did something pretty cool with the L-shaped space that we didn’t use for this built-in bookshelf project. We made a craft corner using pegboard, wall-mounted cubby shelves, and simple shelves.

Here is a close-up showing the other vertical shelf support prepped with construction adhesive in the dados, ready to be attached to the rest of the shelf: There is one shelf that has too many heavy textbooks on it and needs a little support, but that was an easy fix. First, I cut all the wood to the required sizes and routed the dados using my jig. I also painted the individual pieces in the garage as well. I collected all the measurements I needed to cover all the exposed areas and got to work in the garage cutting the trim.Each shelf had to be adjusted so they fit perfectly into the dado grooves. Screws were also inserted to secure the connections. To get the cabinets ready for installation, I built a framed housing for each. Then I slid the cabinets into the housing and screwed them in. Next, I applied more adhesive to the attached shelves and dropped it on the remaining dado-ed vertical support. Fixed MDF dividers help keep your books neat & upright, whilst the optional plastic labelling facility on each bookshelf lip means clear identification of contents is simple.

Next, I used a drawing program on my computer (Photoshop) to calculate the minimum number of 4 x 8 sheets of plywood needed to cut out all the required bookshelf pieces. Whatever your needs for outdoor furniture we have every corner covered. We have lots of wooden outdoor Tables and Chairs, Outdoor Storage and lots of Adventurous Outdoor toys to make break time even more fun. Let the children use their imaginations with our teepees/wigwams, oversized musical instruments and large sandpits with water trays. Our all year round weather proof tables and chairs are perfect for any outside space. Keep the school grounds tidy with a selection of litter bins and make bring the school to life in colour with our sturdy planters, why not introduce a gardening club to make lunchtime learning fun?! In addition, the middle 2 x 4 (that bridged the two bookshelves at the top) was going to help support the middle shelf that ran above the window. Finally, I ran a 2×4 wood by the top shelf to serve as a mounting point for securing the bookshelf to the wall. PRIMING AND PAINTING THE BOOKSHELVES All that remained now was to fill all the countersunk holes with wood putty, patch and smooth any imperfections in the trim, caulk any small gaps (mostly with the crown molding and baseboard) and then apply paint where necessary. Painting The Built-In Bookshelves & WallEileen hopped in at this point to take over the painting. She painted all remaining wood – going over the edges, getting the trim, and touching up areas here and here. Here is the diagram I made in Photoshop to calculate the number of 4 x 8 plywood sheets needed: Constructing The Built-In Bookshelves

Versatile metal shelving system which offers a wide range of specialist shelves and accessories to suit your library. This range of shelving can be added to or adapted to meet your changing needs.The vent opening on the floor just needed a small top and bottom piece of the baseboard to blend in. Designed for smaller areas in nurseries, classrooms or reading areas, our small room scene has a corner sofa upholstered in a lime green wipe clean vinyl fabric, plenty of storage space plus an arched entrance way to demarcate this as a quiet area. The built-in bookshelf project was now finished. Eileen immediately filled up the shelves with all the books we had, freeing up much-needed space around the house. She also painted the areas to the right and left of the window (which were currently still the color of the walls). That really made the bookshelf pop.
