Magic trick shelf
"My daughter thinks this is a magic trick. We love it too and used it for her penguin classic books. Looks amazing on the wall and we used one of the design ideas from your site and made it look as though a doll is holding the books up. Everyone comments on it when they are her room."

Great, Versatile Product
"I purchased these for my sons nursery. They were simple to install, took 15 minutes to install three of them. They hold a ton of books! We'll be using these for years to come as his book collection grows."

Not that great
"These aren't that sturdy and the hardware it came with didn't work properly so we had to go get a different kind to install it. Also, the books don't stay on it all that well. It looks cute, but isn't really all that practical."

Great for Small Spaces!
"My son's nursery is on the smaller side so when we started decorating and getting everything ready we wanted to be smart with our furniture choices. Anything too bulky would make the space look smaller. When I found these shelves I was ecstatic. They're exactly what his room needed. They're a fantastic way to display and hold books without needing to bring in a full on book shelf. Clean and simple!"

Love These Shelves!
"My teenage daughter is an avid reader and still prefers actual books over the electronic versions. Her books are her prized collection and she rarely parts with a title! Not surprisingly, her bookshelves are overflowing so I purchased three of these floating shelves for her for Christmas. She loves them! They are a trendy addition to her room decor, and each one holds a substantial stack of books. I love how they display her books in a fun, new way without taking up additional space in the room."

The Old Floating Bookcase Trick
"Great, pracical shelf. We would recommend installing it into a wall stud for extra stability. Neat wall accent and very practical. My son thinks it's great."

So cute for all ages!
"I got two of these to help create a special 'space' for my kids by their bunk beds. Because they're younger, their books don't quite work so well to look 'floating' and hit the notch that keep the back cover up, but it still works even just putting the book directly on top. I love that they'll be great for every age and my kids won't outgrow them."

great shelves!
"These shelves are so cool. I ordered this size and the larger one. They are such a unique idea and add great color to the kids rooms. I prefer these to the standard book shelf."
