5 6" x 16" reclaimed wood cedar planks were cut to the desired shelf width.

Two wood triangle shelf supports were created by cutting the same sized planks at 45 degree angles.

Cheap brackets or what! Works great!

A Kreg Jig was used to join all four planks together from the back.

However you can also join all the boards by attaching two support boards from the back.

What is a Kreg Jig?

A Kreg Jig is a tool that helps you create pocket holes so you can join wood. It's so easy to use, makes very strong holds and you'll find you pick it up constantly if you love to build projects!

My jig is a K4 model which clamps the wood into place. I adore it!

How to use a jig:

1. Dry-fit your project.
2. Flip boards good face down.
3. Insert wood into jig, clamp into place, and drill pocket holes wherever you wish to attach the boards.

I desired to theme my little shelf with a coffee-theme! Using this National Brewers Coffee - Small stencil, I stenciled the image in black on the first 2 planks.

How to stencil:

1. Position stencil into place.
2. Secure with masking tape.
3. Load stencil brush, then remove most paint to create a dry-brush.
4. Tap or swirl brush through stencil to create the desired effect.

Position where you desire the shelf and shelf supports to go, pre-drill holes, then attach together with screws.

My shelf was positioned one plank below the coffee sign so the coffee gear didn't obstruct the design.

Then add additional hooks below for even more storage hanging space!

Isn't it the cutest?

This little shelf is perfect for a compact coffee station, totally freeing up your kitchen counter space!

Other ways to use this shelf:

• a phone station
• art supplies
• tools
• crafts
• bathroom for toilet paper and towels

and more!

All I know is, coffee time just got a whole lot more fun, thanks to this rustically cool coffee-themed shelf... for compact spaces!

But I have to admit, I need another one for a mini tool station downstairs. I guess I'd better build another!

How would you use this shelf? Think you'll make one?
