IKEA desk shelf |
I like my IKEA desk and the little shelf, which I've using a lot for doing my interior design assignments at home. But I have so many equipments (e.g., paints, pens, colour pencils, pastels, markers, glues, etc) and this one shelf is not enough. So, I decided to build a custom-made shelves by myself--with disposable wooden chopsticks! Basically, I made 6 cubes. Chopsticks can be quite strong, and it is easy to make the size you want. I love the natural wood smell, too.
IKEA で買ったデスクと棚すごく気に入っていて、インテリアデザインの宿題をする時に大活躍です。でも道具(ペイント、ペン、色鉛筆、パステル、マーカー、糊など)が多くて、1つの棚では足りない。なのでちょうどの大きさの棚を割り箸で手作りしてみました。6個分の箱を作り積み上げてます。割り箸と言えど、案外丈夫だし、自分の好きなサイズに出来るので便利。木の匂いも好き。
