I have a few walls in my home that I’m not entirely sure what to do with — until I saw these incredible copper shelves!

Mandi from Making Nice in the Midwest recently shared her DIY shelving system tutorial over on A Beautiful Mess and I was blown away by a) how easy it is and b) how fantastic it looks once installed.

Working with a tight budget meant having shelves custom built was out of the question. Instead, Molly opted for some good ol’ IKEA hacking. A mix of Lack shelves in different sizes proved to be the perfect solution. Continue Reading
