Cloakroom today is no longer a privilege of the rich, not a tribute to fashion, but a very convenient and practical room in which things are mostly located on the shelves. You can buy a cloakroom to order, and you can make shelves for it yourself. Let's find out how.
How to make a shelf of wood with your own hands?
For the production of shelves wood of pine or spruce is best suited. The boards can be of any size, planed or non-planed. The only condition is that they should be well dried.
For work we will need such tools:
- perforator and circular saw;
- a screwdriver, a screwdriver and a hammer;
- ruler, pencil, tape measure;
- putty on wood;
- varnish;
- nazhdachka coarse and fine;
- furniture corners and screws.
- First of all, it is necessary to mark the boards according to the required dimensions with a pencil and ruler.
- Lay the boards on a flat surface and cut out the necessary details from them along the lines that were outlined earlier.
- If it is necessary to cut out curly elements, it is better to use an electric jigsaw.
- Scratch all the details first rough, and then fine sandpaper. If you used a non-planed board to make a shelf, cut all the knots from the blanks and carefully sand the whole surface with sandpaper. All available grooves and irregularities are covered with putty.
- We cover all details with varnish. After it is completely dry, we apply another layer of varnish and let it dry completely.
- We mark the place of fastening of shelves in the dressing room.
- At the fastening points we drill holes.
- If you mount a shelf made by hand from wood, directly to the wall, then for fixing we use dowels and screws. We cover their caps with putty. We fix the furniture corners.
- Shelves for the dressing room, made by own hands, are ready.
