Genius Parents Repurpose Shelves To Build This Bookcase Wall

Looking for the a creative way to display your books?  The internet has gone nuts over this particular design, and for good reason. This DIY bookshelf idea made from shelves should probably win the prize for most clever design book shelf ever. It would be pretty even without books. I want one so badly – would style it with books and all sorts of colorful things. My book collections needs lots of storage and I am definitely making this very bookshelf this summer. I love that these parents made this and shared their clever idea. I am already thinking the IKEA bookcases that are cheap and already made into boxes should work great for this project.

Check out this amazing DIY bookcase in all its glory – it looks like a spiral flower or something just really amazing. Wall art for your books, definitely a statement piece that can turn a boring room into something spectacular.

The Ultimate Book Case

Take Jess and Sinclair Breen from Australia, the couple who made an insanely impressive DIY custom bookcase for their children.
As the owners of a home renovation company, making this bookcase was a relatively easy feat for them, but the stunning bookcase made it to the internet.

Needless to say, it went viral and the internet went crazy.

A ton of carefully cut out boards, predrilled by a cabinet maker, were lined up and screwed together to make each box that formed the final design. In case you were wondering, the couple used enough boards to make a total of 36 boxes. Talk about a ton of book space!

Arranging the boxes on a large piece of medium-density fiberboard is what allowed this gorgeous piece of book-shelving art to come together. Without it, they wouldn’t have been able to hang it!

Their wall didn’t have the right framing to support the large structure. The illusion of a wall is what results from this. The boxes were attached, and the bookcase was born.

I don’t know about you, but I am so jealous of this couple’s kids! I would kill for this bookcase. I mean, look at it! If you have a large book collection, then you probably know how I feel.

If you were to create a custom bookcase, what would it look like?
