cherrie from netherlands sent in this lovely rattan shelving salvaged from a
degernes rattan bed storage box.
"my husband and i once lived in a flat so small we HAD to have a sofa bed if we wanted a double bed at all. along with a
beddinge sofa bed we bought along the degernes rattan bed storage box. when things improved, we moved to a decent sized flat where we could put a proper bed in the bedroom.
we had no use for the trundle box anymore, but i love the rattan on metal frames it�s made of. i reckoned they�re sturdy enough to support lightweight decoration items on, so i went back to ikea, picked up a couple of
hall wall brackets, and mounted the rattan planks on top.

one of these shelves is now in our daughter�s nursery (pix above). it looks just perfect in the room. for additional safety, i inserted metal pegs (ones usually used as plank support in cupboards � sorry, i have no idea what those are properly called) into the screw holes, which fixed the plank to the brackets so you don�t accidentally pull the whole plank if you pull something on it.

i love it! it�s quite a bargain too, considering the box costs $40, and you get 4 planks in two different lengths to work with."
