This weekend Kassandra and I have been busy getting ready her new shelves for the refurbished bedroom. We had a great time assembling them - she said this was her first time assembling furniture, and she thought it was a lot of fun.
She has decided to go for an Scandi look, and this was the first one we did:
 |
| Can you see the assembly guide on the floor? |
"Thank goodness for illustrated instructions!", she said. "I thought we would be having to go through technical names, and I am terrible at that."
"Yes, it is true that this furniture is very easy to put together. Are you going to use it as is?"
"Oh no, I got some storage boxes for it. What do you think about them?"
"Always black with you, my dear! But I really like the dotted one! It gives a pinch of informality to the set."
"Yes, I think so too. Let's start with the second one!"
And said and done, this was the second shelf:
"Very nice!", she said. "I like the simplicity."
"Let's put it in place."
"I love it! I'm so happy with my new bedroom!"

Fantasy apart, I love that these pieces are so similar to a real life ones from a very well known Swedish shop. I am very happy that we can find modern looking furniture for modern settings. You can find them already painted (I have seen them only in white), or in untreated wood (like mine). I painted them white, obviously. I have another set in my Japanese room. In that case I painted them black. You can find these kind of shelves at Beautifully Handmade.
Also, the storage boxes I designed myself specifically for these shelves, inspired by the real counterparts. So, if you have these same shelves, I am happy to share with you the free printable to make them. Also, if you are a devil for the details as I am, here is also the assembly guides printable.
As always, feel free to print as many as you like, make gifts for friends and pass the file along to anyone; links back are nice too. Just please do not sell the file or your creations. Thank you very much, and enjoy! ♥
