The article discusses a personal project of creating a custom shelf to showcase a collection of food-themed decor. The author describes their aesthetic as 'maximalist Marie Kondo' and emphasizes the importance of having colorful and eclectic home storage solutions. After assembling IKEA nightstands using a specific glue for a secure bond, they detail the dimensions of the completed DIY shelf and how it fits into their home decor. The project not only adds functionality but also allows for creative expression in arranging cherished items.
I have cool mid-century tension rod shelving from the '70s in a few rooms of my apartment, but there was a little spot I wanted to put a tall shelf to display my most prized pieces: my vast collection of food-themed bric-a-brac.
This glue promised a 'permanent bond in seconds'... I initially just glued two together, let them dry for 20 minutes, then came back to assemble the DIY shelf to its full height of 64 inches.
