No Drill Bathroom Shelves
The wall mounted shelves in decorative box or triangular shapes hang on braided cords, which in turn are attached to round tesa® Adhesive Screws. The advantage: The DIY decorative shelf will safely hold as long as you need it and leaves no holes in the wall when you remove it.
We need:
- Flat square or triangular wooden boxes (approx. 25 cm side length)
- Colored braided nylon cords: approx. 60 cm per square box, for the two triangular boxes approx. 1.20 m
- Drill
- Ruler
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Lighter
- Per box 1 x tesa® Round Adhesive Screw (5 kg)
- Matching cap nuts (M4)
Time (without the drying time for the adhesive screw): approx. 1 hour
This is how we do it:
Step 1
02
Mark the drill holes: two holes per box - approx. 18 cm apart, at 1.5 cm from the back of the box. For the two triangular boxes: Make sure that the drill holes are exactly one on top of the other.
Step 2
03
Using a wood drill (according to the size of the braided cord, here about 8 mm) drill out all holes.
Step 3
04
Divide the nylon cord into 30-cm pieces.
Hold each cord end shortly above the flame of the lighter to seal it before threading.
Step 4
05
Pull the cords through the corresponding holes and knot tightly.
Step 5
06
For each box or set of boxes, attach one adhesive screw to the tiled wall (follow the instructions on the packaging) and allow the adhesive to dry overnight.
Step 6
07
Place the metal cover on the adhesive screw.
Step 7
08
Fit the nut and tighten the cap nut for extra hold.
Step 8
09
Hang the boxes so that the cord is anchored between the nut and the cap nut.
