As I mentioned in my last post, up-cycling is a hobby I am deeply passionate about. And when the item to be reused/up-cycled is wood, I really do not want to miss the opportunity. So after the up-cycled bench in Part I of this post, I had ample parts of the frame left over. So, I just decided to get put the pieces together for a shelf that could be either hung on the wall or just placed on a table.
Here are some pictures “before” and “after”:

Do let me know if you have any other ideas on how to have re-used these frames better. Would love to hear from you.
