Rustic Industrial Ikea Hack Bookcase

Recently I realized that my 17 year old son was really lacking storage and functionality in his room. Sports equipment, bags and memorabilia were everywhere, the tiny bureau we bought for him when he was a toddler was spilling over with his adult-sized clothes, and he kept losing things in his own room because the space was such a mess. I set out to improve this situation with the hope that a more organized space would help him focus more on his studies. As part of the room redesign I built a custom-sized bookcase very inexpensively, and now he has a landing place for things that are special to him along with trophies, school supplies and college brochures. See how I turned 2 metal shelving units into a customized wall of storage here: http://www.shineyourlightblog.com/2016/02/ikea-hack-bookcase.html
