It's WISE to DIY: Thrify Ideas for the Do-It-Yourselfer

He Added Extra Wood To These Frames To Turn Them Into Creative and Cool SHELVING!!

Simple carpentry skills are all that is required here to make these.  Well, actually you will also need some eclectic frames, spare wood, nails, perhaps some wood glue and a saw of some sort.

You are basically building a box that the frame will adhere to and then affixing the box to the wall.

It looks SO COOL!

In fact, at changeofsceneries.com, this is all they had to say about how they made these:

Small pieces of wood were added to the backs of old frames, creating shelves for additional storage. We arranged the framed shelves in an asymmetrical arrangement to keep the space looking casual. From there, we used books and small trinkets to fill.

So I guess there may be a bit of winging-it on this project but nothing that cannot be pulled off in no time.
