Copperfield's shelves!




We all need some magic in our life, even college students!




With this DIY Hack you'll be able to gain a bookshelf and impress your friends with a simple and immediate trick!









You'll need:
  • Book with a solid cover
  • Simple Bookends
  • Drill
  • Screw(s)
  • Duct Tape / Patafix


It's actually very simple: If there isn't a hole in the bookend drill two holes (see picture below) and attach it to the wall with the screws (PS: You can also use "no more nails" or something like that but with this method it's safer and more stable)



After that just place your book and fix the cover with tape or patafix (Or even hot glue if you really hate that book)

You just obtained a floating bookshelf made of book... Bookception!!

Hello World!

Hello guys!
This is my first post on this (new) blog...

I'm a college student and I'm moving in a new apartment.
My goal is to try to "make a house a home" and not to be ashamed inviting friends over.

Over the year I collected from various sites some of the best (IMHO) crafting designs, DIY-ideas and stuff that would make an apartment more student-friendly and (of course) cool

Even if the methods and materials can be easily noticed i'll add a brief description of the process...

There are a lot of sites like this blog: i understand that this one will be just another diy-blog but I'm confident that, even if some of the designs and the images can be found in various sites, in this one you'll find just college-oriented projects and beginner stuff...
