I wanted a Restoration Hardware/Pottery Barn-ish industrial looking shelves for the living room.
By taking four units of Hyllis, turning them upside down and making some cuts, we had the basis for our shelves. We then treated the wood, made some cuts to make sure it fit and la voila. These are the results!
