You'd Never Know This Bookcase Was Full Of DIY Hidden Storage
By KELLY CATLIN
In a clever twist on traditional home decor, TikToker @ugcwithkaytelynn has shared a DIY hack that cleverly disguises hidden storage within what appears to be a standard bookcase.
Start by gathering any empty boxes or shoeboxes you have. Next, print various pictures of book spines — you can opt for neutral hues or images of best-selling titles if you prefer.
Then, carefully trim the excess white space from your printed images to ensure the faux books look authentic and are sufficiently tall to hide the boxes once affixed.
Finally, tape the "books" to your boxes, stash away any clutter you wish to hide, and voilà! You've crafted a faux bookshelf with plenty of hidden storage for all your items.
