Skateboard Shelving

Take three skateboards, a blank wall ,and a room in need of storage and this is what you get. This would be so cool for a boy's room.

Craft Materials:

3 skateboards( you can get them at Target)

2 (25-inch) hanging standards and 6 sturdy 6 1/2 inch shelf brackets.

6 wall anchors

6 screws that fit in the shelf bracket holes

4 drywall wall clips

2 wire bike baskets

Directions:

1. Install the hanging standards with the wall anchors, spacing them so that the shelf brackets will fit inside the skateboard wheels

2. Attach the brackets to the standards, spacing them as desired to create 3 shelves.

3.Place the skateboards on the brackets and push a nail through the bracket holes nearest the wall to make a mark on the skateboard for the pilot holes.

4. Remove the skateboards. Using the nail impressions as guides, drill the pilot holes(being careful not to go all the way through), and then attach the skateboards to the brackets with screws.

5. Below the shelving unit, mount 4 drywall wall clips to secure the 2 wire bike baskets.
