The most popular furniture for a children's room is shelves and racks. This type of furniture is easy to use, functional and does not take up much space.
Shelves can be installed in the upper half of the wall and then the main part of the room remains free. In addition, modern apartments have small spaces and force owners to choose modern, functional furniture.
Wall shelves for a children's room are the most suitable option, as they allow you to place books, toys and clothes.
Shelves for children's rooms
Interior design is determined by the presence of furniture that is suitable for its purpose, convenience and functionality.
For a children's room you can choose something stylish, original, unusual, for example:
- Lightweight shelves made of plastic, glass or other shiny materials that are always in sight and give the room airiness without hiding the free space.
- Mesh shelves for storing shoes.
- Wooden shelves for a classic interior design. An ideal option for shelves for books in a nursery.
- Bright shelves depicting your favorite cartoon characters.
Let's get to work
Draw a marking on any board for future cutting, and on another board you will create a silhouette of the majestic mountains.
Using clamps, secure the boards directly to the table. To avoid leaving unwanted marks directly on the prepared wood, you can simply lay fabric between the clamp and the same board. Carefully cut out the “mountains” straight along the lines using a jigsaw.
Using sandpaper, sand your workpiece.
Assemble the structure and you will see that making shelves quickly enough with your own hands is more than easy. The “mountains” must be secured directly to the shelf using nails or screws that are at hand.
It is advisable to try to do this in such a way that in the future, with the help of brackets, you can easily hide the attachment points.
Paint the shelf with paint or your chosen acrylic varnish in two layers.
Secure the brackets while the wood continues to dry.
This completes the work. All that remains is to attach the workpiece directly to the selected bracket. To do this, you just need to place it carefully on the corners and screw it directly onto small screws. All that remains is to check the shelf for its reliability and place the already selected items on it.
In conclusion, it is worth noting that if you are considering the option of using shelves in a room that does not have a large area, then it is better to use wall-mounted shelves, since they significantly save free space and at the same time fit perfectly into almost any style direction.
Only with a competent approach, shelves and other furniture for a child will help achieve ideal conditions for the process of study and relaxation.
