Shelf Wall
I need help with shelving please?!?
I had this idea that instead of getting a night stand with my furniture set, which is a very nonfictional night stand, that I could get shelving and use the top or if it’s a tall shelving the middle shelf as a nightstand and put it by my bed. It would make a much better night stand then the one the company (lea iroom) is selling. My furniture is a honey/pine/light color. I’m open to anything: book shelves, wall shelving, tall shelf unit, anything. Any suggestions please?
Oh, and I’m a girl 14.
I’m assuming you’re looking for more storage for things you want next to your bed, which is why a traditional night stand isn’t your first choice, yes?
If so, you can easily find a bookcase that’ll match your furniture’s color/grain. Or you might consider using a shoe shelf (like this: ) so you have lots of little cubbies for your stuff.
However, you might want to also consider:
>>> Move your bed 6″-12″ away from the wall and install shelf brackets on the -back- of your headboard, then put a shelf on the brackets. This’ll give you a ton of room for “stuff” such as your alarm clock, a lamp so you can read in bed, books, magazines, all the whatnot you might want to keep close at hand. Plus you get “hidden” storage under the shelf & behind your bed. 
>>> For stuff you might want to keep close but not “on display,” you can purchase a plastic bin on wheels that’ll roll under your bed.
>>> If you do go with a bookcase, consider using a tension curtain rod with a nice piece of fabric on it as a curtain, and curtain off the lower shelf, or two shelves. Again, for the stuff you want to keep close at hand but not on display.
>>> You can buy (usually found at water bed stores) a drawered platform for your box spring to sit on… it’ll have 2-4 drawers in it and you use it instead of a bed frame. It wouldn’t take much to attach your headboard/footboard to it… just some long screws and a power screwdriver.
>>> You can buy or purchase some wooden shadow boxes (like this http://www.homedecorators.com/detail.php?parentid=6808200&aid=nxtg) or a storage cubby (like so: http://www.ivgstores.com/IVG2/Y/ProductID-128964-.htm) to hang on your wall as storage cubbies… if yours doesn’t come with hooks, you can add ‘em so you have a place for your necklaces, hair bands, ponytail scrunches, etc.
Hope this helps,
TX Griff
>>> You could also consider a bench w/ cubbies underneath, and baskets for the cubbies (like this http://www.ivgstores.com/IVG2/Y/ProductID-8466-Bedroom-Bench-and-Wall-Shelf-Hall-Tree-Coat-Rack-Storage.htm).
