Vertical shelf for flowers
My son, having done a fair amount of wrong to his mother, decided to “suck up” to her in this way and beg for forgiveness. And the method I chose for this, it seems to me, is not quite ordinary. After all, children his age make something out of plasticine, draw a picture, or, at worst, make something out of paper. Therefore, with my persistent desire to make a shelf for violets, and even a vertical one, I made it clear: I definitely can’t get away with it. After all, it was I who was supposed to be the assistant-mentor. So we started.
So, to make this vertical flower shelf, you will need:
• screwdriver or drill,
• confirmat drill,
• hex and cross bits, as well as a magnetic extension for quick replacement,
• a small hammer or mallet,
• notching at 12 (although this is not necessary, more on that below),
• 42 self-tapping screws 40 mm long with a countersunk head,
• and four – with a large decorative one.
• In addition, 14 confirmats will be needed,
• awl (where would we be without it),
• four narrow canopies,
• nine iron corners,
• carpenter's knife,
• a piece of sandpaper on a block,
• iron and small rag.Any iron, even one that you use regularly for ironing clothes (you won’t ruin it anyway), and a rag so you don’t get burned when you glue the hot edge.
• By the way, the edge. Choose it to match the color of the chipboard, or vice versa, make it contrasting, decide for yourself,
• and the slab pieces themselves do not need to be ordered cut from a whole sheet. I made identical parts 100 by 130 mm from leftovers in a workshop where they saw large sheets of paper “for thanks”, which was expressed in a bottle of cold sparkling water. It took 15 of them, although this entirely depends on the size of the window on which you will hang our vertical flower shelf.
Now we glue the parts with an edge. There is nothing sophisticated here, so we apply a piece, heat it with a hot iron for a few seconds, and press and smooth it with a rag (be careful not to get burned).
Now we cut off the excess and go over it with sandpaper “to be sure.” And so - all the details.
We seal two of them with one confirmation,
and we get seven identical “letters G” plus one more detail.
And from the remnants of the edge we will cut into circles with a notch to seal the heads of the confirmations. It’s just that in the store where I bought it, there were no circles of this color. Although if you are luckier than me, you can simply skip this stage by purchasing ready-made ones.
Now we collect the scattered parts into a single vertical shelf for flowers. The children immediately nicknamed her “caterpillar.”
It needs to be secured. But not just hang it (then we would fasten the awnings “hidden”), but pull it in so that, if possible, it
hung as tightly as possible. And it's ready.
Now we arrange the flowers.
That's all the wisdom, a vertical shelf for flowers is not just assembled, but hangs and pleases the eye.What more could you want from her? Probably nothing.
