Shelf Storage With An Old Repurposed Chair, Here's How
By ETHAN HARRISON SMITH
Repurposing old chairs offers a creative and cost-effective way to add storage space to your home while breathing new life into unused furniture.
Selecting a suitable chair is crucial for successful upcycling. Look for chairs with flat backs and seats that provide ample surface area for shelving.
Remove the legs and leave the backrest and seat to create a functional shelving unit suitable for displaying houseplants, books, or decorative items.
Alternatively, you can modify the seat's shape or incorporate additional planks of wood to offer customization options that match your desired aesthetic.
If you prefer to preserve the chair's integrity, utilize wall hooks to hang it securely as a shelf. This allows you to showcase the chair without extensive modifications.
