DIY- Shelf

For this shelf, I plan to create a flexible shelf that can be place horizontally and vertically.

Step 1: Choice of Material

Here are the materials I chose...

Pen/ Marker
Cutting pad
Cutter
Glue for plastic
Plastic
Ruler
and a Flooring material which I got from Home Depot

Step 2: Choose Your Size

Now choose how big you want the shelf to be. 

For my project, I chose width to be 12" and length to be 48"

Then measure the length in 3"/ 5"/ 7.5"/ 10.5"/ 15 on one side

And measure the length in 5"/ 7"/ 9.5"/ 12.5"/ 17 on the other side

Later we ganna flip it and add several dividers and create the form

P.S. This is a small size shelf. If you want to have a larger one, simply double or triple up the length according to the above measurements.

Step 3: Start Cutting and Pasting

Now start to cut the plastic to the length you want

The dividers' length I used are:
12"x 4"
12"x 4.5"
12"x 5"
12"x 6"
12"x 8"

After cutting, glue them onto the 12"x 48" plastic, following the ascending length. Be very careful when you glue them on because when you flip the 12"x 48" plastic, it may not be perfectly lined up if it is not perpendicular. 

Step 4: Paste the Flooring Material

Since the plastic itself is too flexible and weak that it could hardly hold things properly, we are going to paste the flooring material which is more stable and firm and is able to hold the stuff.

This flooring material is already 12"x 12", so that you could simply paste it along the edge.

Then you are DONE!
