DIY floating shelf

By the time I got the building shelves for this project I wanted something easy and cheap .

All you need for this is some $2.99 ikea shelves and 3in pine (or however thick you want your shelves).

Cut your edges at an angle so they match up nicely

Simply wood glue and nail the pine to the ikea shelf and you are almost done

My shelf will bump up to a cabinet so I left one side opened

For my bracket I actually took my floating shelf with me to Lowe’s to find a piece that fit perfect. This ended up being a 1×2 but definitely recommend taking your shelf with you. I staggered the other pieces of the bracket so some would support the top and others the bottom of the shelf

I also have this saved onto a highlight if you visit my instagram with more videos
