Curio Shelf Unit

Project by azwoodman posted 58 days ago 380 views 4 times favorited 7 comments Add to Favorites Watch

It had been a while since Ive been in the shop (garage…) so I decided to get out there and build something. I had seen something like this last time i went to Target and thought that it would be kinda cool. The whole thing is about 50in wide by 30in tall. The majority of the piece is 4in deep but I recessed a few of the squares to make it a little more interesting. It is made out of 3/4in mdf and spray painted with semi-gloss black. It could easily be made from whatever materials you would like though. I used a couple of key hole hangers that i recessed into the back of the unit and it hangs nicely on the wall… Now all I need are little things to put on it… Im sure my wife can figure that part out! LOL. Let me know what you think…

Interesting. I have thought about doing something like that, but then my wife would want me to dust it now and then.

Neat design, well done…...and it would look just as cool hanging vertically.

i really like this piece. it is functional, modern, and eats up a bit of wall space with something interesting, as well as the ability to add things that have some personal meaning to them. nice work!

Great shelf. Not a fan of MDF put this really looks nice. Love the design. A piece of “Art” to put more art onto.

Keep up the great work.
