EQ - I use pieces of pine board from home depot that I cut, sand & stain. Then I attached them to a wall using brackets I order online. The brackets I use are $5 a piece but you can find them cheaper. The nice thing about this is that it keeps the display neat (something my wife appreciates) and you can just add shelves to the wall and go as high or low as you want. Each shelf costs about $17 to make.

All of the walls in this room are covered with shelves but it's a pretty flexible set-up that's easy to add onto.

That's a nice clean look, madadman.
madadman,
Looks great! I like the look, but I'm going to have them built in. It's the look of the braces that I don't seem to like. It visually breaks things up for me. Don't know if that makes any sense or not.
Thanks, Sculpy. I'm anal. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
Not sure what I'm going to do once I've run out of walls but I've got a little while before that happens.
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Totally makes sense. It's something I wrestle with all the time. In the long run I'd like to have a built in setup too - once I own my own place. If you can swing it it's probably the way to go.Quote:
