In this article, you will get a step-by-step guide on how to build a DIY four hands home-inspired shelf.

From experience, I have learned that it is important to have a plan on how you are going to make your shelf.

You have to ensure that you have all the tools and materials needed in making your shelf. It is always good to be well equipped and prepared for a smooth and satisfactory build.

Being well equipped also saves on time used on the building.
With that said, here is a step-by-step guide on how to build a DIY four hands home-inspired shelf.

Step 1: Choose your design.

Before getting started, you should have the design you want in mind.
It assists in deciding on the whole project such as the measurements you will make.

The design you choose should match where you want to place your shelf.

Step 2: Decide on the size of your DIY Four Hand Shelf.

The size of your shelf will depend on what you want to use it for.
Ensure that you measure your space and make a plan on your shelf unit.

It is important as it will determine how you cut and prepare your material for assembly. So be very accurate when doing this as you do not want to end up wasting your material.

Step 3: How many supports do you want for your Four Hands Home Inspired Shelf.

I think that two supports can work perfectly for a four hands shelf. However, depending on the design, you may need more.

I would advise not to go for less than two supports otherwise you are risking your shelf to collapse once you put on weight on it.

Step 4: Look at what will be the function of your Four Hand Shelf.

Here, you will get to decide on the number of boards and plank woods you plan on using.

In my opinion, though, I don’t think that the top board is necessary but you can put one if you feel that that’s the look you want.

Also, ensure that the poles you will be using as your four hands are strong enough to hold the whole shelf in place.

There are a variety of choices you can go for when attaching the boards, the plank woods, and the support.

You can choose to either drill holes and screw everything in place, you can choose to nail everything in place, or you can choose to clamp everything in place.

Depending on your desire and your design, I would advise that you choose the method that will work best for you and hold your shelf in place.

Step 5: What kind of finish do you want?

The material you choose depends on the finishing you will be doing on your shelf.

Afterward, you can paint your shelf to your desired taste. And just like that, your shelf is ready for use

However, make sure that you wait out for the paint to dry first.

Tools and materials to use.

You can choose the materials you want on your four-hand shelf. It can be a wood plank, iron pipe, or any other material.

The tools that I find to come in handy and can be used on any material you plan on working on include:

  • A measuring tape: This will help you in your measurements to ensure you get the correct measures and align your shelves correctly.
  • A level: It is an important tool that will help ensure your shelves are horizontal to the ground. It will help prevent things from falling off your shelf.

Other tools that you will choose will depend on the material you are using. Ensure that you do thorough research on the tools you will need.
