Doesn’t get much clever than this! D.I.Y Inspiration from ScrapHacker.com. Roping in Some Shelves « Folksy Home. So last time I left off with what I fancied as a cryptic photo of another bedroom project.

Roping in Some Shelves « Folksy Home

CAN YOU HANDLE THE SUSPENSE?? A refresher: Zoom out a little, and BOOM. Rope Shelves. I decided we needed some shelving somewhere in the bedroom to display knick knacks, and after brainstorming with the husband and going through various options, such as floating shelves (too hard to build), and bracketed shelves (take up too much visual space) we settled on making this Pinterest inspiration our own: They were the perfect solution because 1) fewer holes in the wall, 2) easy peasy to make, and 3) cheap! After staining with Minwax English Chestnut and sealing with Minwax Wipe-On Satin Poly, began the rope work.

I threaded each length of natural jute rope (from Homey Deeps) up through a hole in the board, measured approximately and made a simple knot, then threaded it up through the next board. And then repeated the process down the other hole on the same side of the board. And the painted version here: DIY DIPTYQUE INSPIRED TUMBLER CANDLES. 28th March 2012 Ok so I’ll be the first to admit that to me, Diptyque candles are the ultimate.

No other candle smells as good, and once used they make a perfect jewelry/make up brush holder. What more could a girl want?

You need: - A glass tumbler - Wax beads - A wick - Tape.
