I live in a tiny little bungalow in the heart of the city, and that obviously provides me with very little garage space when I need to get to my handy work. Our garage is miniscule to say the least, with just barely enough room to fit our single car in, plus a little bit of extra room for working on home projects. I am a dedicated “do it yourself-er”, so I really wanted to find a way to be able to do some tinkering in my garage. After all, is that not what drives a man to buy a house in the first place? The ability to tinker to his heart’s content?

Aluminum Wall Mounted Folding Shelves

The solution to my desire for tinkering was right in front of my eyes the entire time, right there on my computer screen. Stacks and Stacks had what I consider to be the ultimate in space saving work shelving: the aluminum wall-mounted folding shelf.  The shelf is super lightweight because of its aluminum construction, weighing in at a meager five pounds. On the flip side, it is able to hold an astonishing 75 pounds of weight! The surface area of the shelf when folded out is approximately 45.5″W x 20.25″D. Now I have enough space to fix remote controls, garbage disposals, and more, plus I have room to get started on my birdhouse building hobby that I have always wanted to get off the ground!
When I am done using this metal wall shelf, I simply fold it down. This unique folding ability allows for enough space to get into my car and pull it out of the garage. When folded down the shelf only sticks out about five inches, leaving plenty of room to move around in the garage. You can find this shelf and others like it over at StacksandStacks.com.

4 foot floating wood wall shelf

Last weekend I took the family out to get some portraits taken. We drove all the way out to the scenic and beautiful Fargo, ND to capture my family’s love for the snow and cold weather. The photo shoot was a smashing success, and we came away with loads of great pictures to share with our friends, and of course, display prominently in our home.
A few days passed and all the while I pondered just where I would want to show off our new portraits. The living room was an obvious first choice, as it was the place our guests were most likely to encounter our gorgeous depictions. Well it turns out I was in luck, because while I was perusing my favorite online store, Stacks and Stacks, I came across the perfect solution.
The 4 foot floating wood wall shelf is the perfect display shelf for my fabulous Fargo family portraits. This sturdy floating shelf is able to support all of the family portraits (including the one in which I received a snowball to the face) and is completely seamless! The shelves not only display the professional images of my family, but add some modern style to my living room as well!

I was worried that I would have a hard time installing a floating shelf into my home, but it turns out that it is a breeze to install this shelf! All I needed was a Phillips head screwdriver to complete the install. I simply screwed in the mounting brackets and then just slid the shelf right into place!

The shelf can hold up to 30 pounds of weight, and at four feet across, has plenty of room to show off my amazing family frolicking in the snowy paradise that is Fargo. As I said before you can find the floating wall shelf and a whole bunch more like it at StacksandStacks.com

It’s just dynamic when a friend of yours surprises you with a gift you didn’t expect.  This happened to me today when Doctor Alan Range of the Jet Propuslor Laboratory in Glendale sent me an actual chart of the distance ShelvesBlog blog posts have traveled through space.  Amazing, informative, incredible!  Of course, when you type anything into the internet, high frequency carrier waves that are invisible to the naked eye take the information far into the cosmos.  But only a special few have access to technology that can track these waves.  And today that’s me!  Thanks Alan! I think the perfect way to celebrate the fact that not only does ShelvesBlog have the most hits and ranking of any blog site pertaining to shelves, but we’ve gone the farthest into space: to review a floating wall shelf. It’s an inevitability that soon or later all home improvers must grapple with: there’s no better way to add functionality to your walls (without the use of a classic “bookcase”) than the wall shelf. The floating wall shelf. There’s no way around a wall shelf if you’re looking for the finest in wall shelves.  And I hope this information makes in deep into space.

I love the durable look of this Floating Wall Shelf from StacksAndStacks.com. The look of custom shelving with those in-demand Architectural Elements built right in. And built of wood. It would be stating the obvious to say that these wall shelves add character and elegance to your home or office, but I’ll spell it out, as Toolmonger disagrees with my premise. The uses you’ll find for a 36″ shelf are legion; the versatility is unlimited — no — limited only by the limits of your imagination. Book, vases, everything, anything. I implore you to consider the Floating Wall Shelf in your hunt for the finest Wall Shelf. By all means, do your own research, but consider it nonetheless. You’ll be glad you did. And so on.

I was trying to count the number of ways a person could uses shelves in the home, while cleaning out my shelf library, and I was deep in thought. There are two concepts that trouble me, while giving me peace at the same time. ONE: the fact that there is an UNKNOWABLE number of ways to use shelves. TWO: the fact that if you begin cleaning and organizing, THERE IS ALWAYS MORE TO CLEAN. These two concepts share equal ground, and that ground is INFINITY. Infinity. It’s almost too hard a concept to wrap your mind around, a concept that would take an infinity to understand completely. But here we all are, trying to get by, everyday we go about organizing and finding new uses for shelves, while the great and all-consuming concept of INFINITY rests just out of sight. It’s always there. And it always will be. I’ll just have to accept that. But you know I won’t accept anything but the finest in shelves, and I’ve found just that at Stacks And Stacks.

This is infinity terrific Wall Shelf Slash Display Ledge from Stacks And Stacks. And besides the simple fact that it holds 50 pounds (50!), it comes in a wide variety of colors and sizes! A not completely, but ALMOST infinite number of choices! Look here: natural, white, dark cherry, black, and honey — that’s a variety of finishes, it is. Not to mention this shelf comes in your choice of lengths: 20 or 24 inches. And that’s really special. So if you, like me, are having trouble reconciling the nature of infinity and the universe itself, it’s nice to know that some things never change. Like the durable simplicity of a great shelf. And a great shelf this is. To infinity and beyond, and so on.

Often I’ll find myself looking at blank wall, staring actually, for hours on end, wondering how I can improve on it. To improve on it without overdoing it, mind you, without killing what makes a bare wall attractive in the first place. As I was staring at my living room wall this afternoon, it struck me that the wall needs support, in the form of a glass shelf. Then it struck me that as a matter of fact, the GLASS SHELF would need support in the form of metal hangers, to remain a hanging shelf. Then it struck me that I need support in the form of psychiatric counseling. But first things first, I need to find a glass shelf to fit this wall.

Perfect. After looking at shelves designed for garages, some for laundry rooms, some for kitchens, and some for the closet, I found the perfect wall shelf at Stacks and Stacks. It’s called the Glass Shelf with Metal Support, and it’s going to really add some dynamic flair to the blank wall. And functionality. This Glass Shelf is available with a Brushed Nickel or Oil Rubbed Bronze Finish, but I wouldn’t be doing my job if I neglected to point you in the direction of the Brushed Nickel version; Oil Rubbed Bronze is not well-suited for wall hangings. The Glass Shelf may slip. So be careful, home improvers, and enjoy this Glass Shelf, and your new non-bare wall.

Many times friends, family, and long time readers of this blog will ask me if the information I post here, and the information that I give them in private shelf consultation, is historically accurate. Of course it is. Sadly there is no degree to be achieved in the category of shelf knowledge, or indeed, I would have it hanging here, in my private basement den. But there isn’t. What I lack in diploma, I make up for in pure information. And yes, it is historically correct. After discussions in Paris, the European powers and the Ottoman Empire ratified Cuza’s election, and the United Principalities officially became Romania in 1861. Almost immediately Cuza initiated a reform program. Encountering resistance from oligarchic boyars, the prince appealed to the masses and held a referendum that approved constitutional provisions giving him broad powers to implement his program. The government improved roads, founded the universities of Bucharest and Iasi, banned the use of Greek in churches and monasteries, and secularized monastic property. Cuza also signed an agrarian law that eliminated serfdom, tithes, and forced labor and allowed peasants to acquire land. Unfortunately, the new holdings were often too expensive for the peasants and too small to provide self-sufficiency; consequently the peasantry’s lot deteriorated. But that should never stop you from enjoying this Delightful 12 x 12 Floating Corner Shelf from Stacks And Stacks!

This amazing shelf allows you to make the most of wasted corners! Ideal! Ideal for showcasing treasures or storing essentials, giving you the mighty power to enhance any room with a look that is classic and enduring! It definitely allows the Corner Shelf to be a stylish and spacious addition to your decor, and you can feel free to use it throughout your home wherever a corner calls! It safe, holding up to 50 lbs, no studs needed. Afterward, animosity toward the prince united the leaders of Romania’s two political parties, the pro-German Conservatives, backed by the boyars and clergy, and the pro-French Liberals, who found support in the growing middle class and favored agrarian reform. All mounting hardware included, so no trips to the hardware store.  And if you can tell me what that thing is with the flower in it, I’d be very grateful. And so on
