    DIY Floating TV Shelf

    September 27, 2017 by Shara, Woodshop Diaries

    Sometimes you want storage.  You want all the doors, cubbies, drawers, and shelves you can get.  Like with this toy storage cabinet.  And other times, you just want something small and simple that doesn’t take up a lot of space but just does its job.  Like this DIY floating TV shelf.

    How to build a simple modern easy DIY Floating TV Shelf with storage cubbies for DVD players and accessories--free building plans and tutorial. Great beginner woodworking project!

     

    It’s just enough to hold a TV, a DVD player and a few accessories, like a modem and wireless router.  Nothing fancy, nothing extra, just exactly what is needed.  It leaves your floor space open, and doesn’t allow you that extra cabinet space to hoard junk (you know what I’m talking about…the junk cabinet 😉 don’t act like you don’t have one haha).

    How to Build a Simple Floating TV Shelf with just enough storage!

    The build is super simple and just requires a few standard tools, a 2×4 and ¼ sheet of plywood.  You’ll have it built, finished, and hung on the wall in no time.  Pinky promise 🙂

    .

    Oh, and you know what’s nice about open floor space?  That’s less places for your dust bunnies to hide and it’s easy to vacuum.  It’s sad that I know this….from experience….

    I just love how simple and clean this space looks with just this floating shelf to hold the TV.  It’s even got holes to run all the cords you’ll ever need!

    Even if you don’t want to use this for a TV, it’s a great little storage shelf that you could use for a small bedside table, or even for a small entryway for a place to set your keys or hide your mail.  It’s super easy to make to whatever size you need.  I’m actually thinking about making another one of these for my entryway and add some shallow drawers in the cubbies.  How cute, right?!
