Yo, Much Luv @DIY Creators. Hey, those drywall anchors you used. Do you know of anything like that, that would make drilling in Wall Paneling stronger? I never see anyone post about flimsy old wall paneling, but in the south, that's all most old homes have?

hey, that's a pretty good tip using the strip of wood to mark the hole locations...I'll will for sure use that next time. keep the great vids coming.
I'm a beginner woodworker and I'm hooked! Have built an Adirondack chair and a French Bench so far and have been stunned and elated at what I apparently can do. Just found your channel, you describe everything so succinctly and explain your choices. Thanks for sharing your talent!
Painter's tape?! And here I was, always relying on another person to hold the other end of the tape measure.

love the limited tools series! So everybody can build along 👌
You made it look so easy to make those shelves, the tutorial was great. I like the paint you used, rather than just black. Richer look. Lot's of good tips. Thank you
Love these shelves! I am doing my whole house in mid-century modern and these will fit right in. Love the paint and all the great tips!
That scrapwood method of transferring the nail locations is freaking GENIUS!! I'm going to use that all.the.time.
Wow! Simple and elegant. Nice project. Thanks!
Love the tip on matching up the key holes to the wall screws. Going to use that every time now.

Those are beautiful, and they look so easy to do. I really love the paint, too, I don't think I've ever seen any like that before. Thank you so much, you've given so many good hints. ( The painter's tape to hold the tape measure was awesome!!) Thank you, again!
There is a lot of beauty in simplicity. This is just about as simple as it gets. Very cool. Love it.
Wow is so beautiful. Great talent! 😱. Keep it up . And thanks for tutoring. I will try this for my restrooms
always nice and smart with you. greetings from France
I love this project. It's so simple yet very elegant.
Hey Glenn? You're a genius! In all my years I've never thought once about using painters tape to hold my tape measure. Thank you for the quick tip!

I've been hooked on watching people build this style of shelf. I worked on my first one today. My miter saw died out of the blue today. I really wanted to cut miters, but at least I've got a cordless skillsaw. This rectangular shape just looks so cool.
Thank you for a great tutorial. You explained everything clearly, I can make this now. I love the oil rubbed bronze paint, too, burn using the spray paint on a lot of projects.
Don't know why I never thought of the scrap wood trick to space the mounting holes. Great tip!
yass genius! can't wait to try this!😁
Thank you for showing the use of other tools. I have pretty nice tools now but when I started I did not and I wished there would have been some one like you! Thanks!
Thank you for showing just how easy these types of projects are. Very helpful!
hi man, i love your work, and i was wondering if you can show us how to make a terrarium with plexiglas and conctrete or wood
great project for beginners..
Nice work. The paint looks metallic, very pretty and useable shelves.
Thank you so much! I dreaded starting a project for the first time, but came across your video. I have received so many compliments thanks to you!
😍 such a beautiful shelf and I'm from Cali you don't see too many brothers handy with a tool so this was uber sexy to me lol

Nice and So Simple !! ::) Tks
My 'woodworking' tools consist of a hand-saw & a speed-square. But I'm going to build this for my living room.I'm also going to check out your 'Limited Tools' videos!
Wow dude!!! I’m amazed by your video! Thank you sooooo much for showing how-to with different tools; not everyone has power tools!!! I really appreciate it. Love it!
Really smooth & simple with the tape no need to call my wife to hold the end of the tape for me lol
thank you men I am going to make one for my daughter
Excellent channel - Done 2 projects from here already (TV back panel and this one to go underneath the panel for the soundbar + electronics hidden in the shelf)
Thanks for the instructions! Very useful! My wife had been asking for floating shelves in our bathroom.

I'm new to your channel and it's helping me to imagine myself making the things that i want to do in my home and apply all your tips and everything that I'm going to learn by watching you.. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge .. God bless you. 💚
Thanks Glen, I'm making these for my bath remodel. Love that paint too!
Very simple, very elegant! Well done. This small project should encourage non-woodworkers to build this for their home.
I'm new to your channel it blown me when I saw your videos. it's really a nice place to learn all about DIY carpentry work. It's amazing,high informative.. thanks bro.. keep going 👍
Thank you for such detailed and clear instructions. I've subscribed!
Damn you're a smart cookie! Making that jig for the screw holes and using tape to hold your tape measure, freaking smart!
Your ability to show how simple can save money on furnishing a house or apartment
Excellent demo! Crisp, clear, and concise!
Nice tip with the wooden off-cut template and also taping the measuring tape to the wall... why hadn't i ever thought of that! nice one!
Great video - I like how you show both options (people who have hand tools and people who have power tools). Also, just very clear, easy to understand and a nice length of video too!
Trying this as we speak for a bathroom I just built. It'll add a very nice touch
Love this! Ive been wanting to make shelves and this is a great way for a beginner to start! Thank you!!
Wow that’s awesome I really like your videos. Simple but effective. The video you made with the wooden bed frame and, led puck lights and blu led tape lights wall wash was really cool!!
Awesome project! I honestly can't wait to make a set for my bathroom, bedroom and spare room.
Love these! That paint color is gorgeous! I’m definitely going to have to find a use for that in a project soon! Thanks for another great video. Your instructions are very clear and easy to follow! Thanks 😊
Nice vid! and some great tips too. I always make the wood wet and let it dry before sanding. this brings out the nuts and the paint job looks much smoother.
Thanks for another great video, Glen! I appreciate the great tips that you give, and simple or complex, you always make it look easy!
Your instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I'm going to home depot right now...👍
Your videos are just on another level they are quick, informative and straightforward to follow.
Nice video. Straight to the point. Even leaving out the obvious stuff that even beginners know how to do, which is perfect. Am going to use this idea.
Great video. Straight and to the point, clear and concise.
OMG this might have been 3 years ago but, I needed this. I have a woodworking class and i have to plan my project thx so much ❤️
Thanks for the tip on matching up the key holes.
I love watching. Very easy to follow. Thanks.
Great video. Thanks for sharing. You made it look so simple. Like the finish.
ty, appreciate this video so much! Budget, lack of tools, and no idea how to use one of those anchor things. Now I know!
All of your projects look amazing, but this is one I may actually be able to do to spruce up my guest bathroom. The wood guide is genius! Thank you!
Quick and easy project.Thank for sharing your ideas.
i'm starting my own workshop at home because of your great vids, I wish I could have all of that usefull tools you got, thanx greetings from Cancun, Mexico
