Baby Nursery / Kid Room Wall Decals (Monkey, Owl, Tree, etc designs to choose from)

Childrens Wall Decals, White Tree Wall Decal, Perfect for Shelf or ShelvingWe purchased the Jungle Animal (Lollipop) decals for our first child who is on the way. We're currently renting and didn't want to have to worry about painting/repainting. These are so easy to apply and really do look like you had someone come in and paint the room -hard to believe you get this level of quality in a 'decal'. We ended up spreading the decals out since they are quite large and were able to create 3 different scenes around the nursery. We love the way it looks already, and I'm sure baby boy will love it too.

My daughter wanted to decorate her room, so she selected the Cherry Blossom Tree Branch decal. It was easy for the two of us to work together and apply it to her walls. She decided not to put the Panda bears up since she wanted a different look.

At first I thought the decals/tree wasn't as tall as the picture makes it look. but once I got the whole room set up it came out very neat. Very happy!

My husband put this up; I handed him the stuff and when we first opened it, it was just pieces, but we just followed the photo and it's looks great. Everyone has complimented the mural. We wanted a nursery that was peaceful and pretty, and the mural certainly captures the feel.

I loved the photos of the pandas and the cherry blossom decal and I knew I had to have it for our son's room. However, I had never applied decals before and had no idea how difficult it would be. It was so easy. The instructions show you each branch number and the connection points are like jigsaw puzzles so you know exactly where the "joints" should fit together. We just pained the walls so we had no problem with wiping them clean so the stickers would adhere. You do have to be patient and careful with the branches since they are very thin and hard to remove once they adhere to the walls. I had to remove one branch and you will dent them with your fingernail while trying to remove it. However, you have so many flowers that you can cover up any little dents with them if you are picky like me.

Once you place all the stickers where you want them you have have to rub them down so they stick well to the wall. We took a large sheet of aluminum foil to cover the decals and rubbed them with a stiff cleaning brush. You should see the texture of the wall through the decals. I am so pleased with the results. It looks like someone painted a mural. I uploaded a photo to show you! It's the photos with the branches starting on the right side on a light blue wall.

Command Medium and Large Water-Resistant Replacement Strips, 2-Medium Strip, 4-Large Strip

Command Medium and Large Water-Resistant Replacement Strips, 2-Medium Strip, 4-Large StripAnd then these work very well. I use them to attach 3M hooks to the size of the tiled shower and the fiberglass shower because I got

very tired of suction cup hooks that would not hold on.

A bit pricey, but worth not having to pick up the scrubber from the floor every day.

Used it to hang a 7-port USB3 hub on the wall. Very limited mounting surface for hub and over 3 months, no issues.

Work awesome. Sticks on surfaces 3M would not

The item clearly shows that this is for a case of 6 bins, when in fact these are sold seperately and charged full price. Watch out. If you read the item description below you can see it's for one bin, not 6

Umbra Conceal Double Wall Book Shelf

Umbra Conceal Double Wall Book ShelfThis is a really great idea for decorating and look great. I bought a couple and may buy more.

Likes

* It can really dress up a drab wall. Much more eye catching that just a bookshelf or photo.

* It's easy to install. Just need 3 screws.

Dislikes

* You have to be choosey with the type of books used. The ones I planned to use were too deep and too heavy. The whole thing sagged. The pictures on the Umbra site show some with a whole stack of books. I wasn't able to get more than a couple of hardcover books on it, without the sagging occurring. Wish they had used slightly thicker gauge metal. For the price charged, they could afford it.

* The single version has 2 mounting holes one above another, so it offers more support. In this double version, it has 3 holes, just slightly above the shelf, in a horizontal row. This might limit the weight bearing capacity.

* The bottom support book only provides support if other books provide weight on the wall side. It also assumes the very small support "hooks" stay engaged on the book cover. If a guest decides to pull a book down to look at it, it is very likely the whole stack will come tumbling down. This should be considered a decorative solution, not a way to store books you will frequently use. Be ready to yell "don't touch those" if you seem someone reaching for them. I would not put anything breakable below these.

Despite some gripes I really like these and they look great on the wall. I think there are some things they could do to improve them, but overall I'm satisfied. I'm recommending them.

If there is a book lover in your family then this a great gift idea. It is a fun and decorative way to showcase favorite or old classic books. The books literally look as if they are freely suspended in the air. They also come in several sizes so that you can fit the particular books you wish to display. And with that I give a warning to make sure that you find the right fit for your books, otherwise the shelf will not be completely concealed.

we love this thing, and I can't believe how much weight this thing can take! we have 12 heavy books and 6 DVD's (TV series) on it...it takes only about a minute to install it with 3 screws on the wall! I will definitely get more of these cool bookshelf's.

I love this shelf! It is a great way to display my books and so unique. I bought some 'singles' to stagger around and place nicknacks on top of some of the stacks. You do need a medium to large book to fit on the bottom. Easy to attach to wall and they are very sturdy. Pretty good deal I found on Amazon too!

This is a great-looking way to display your books, but be warned that it is not the sturdiest of shelves. But it's currently holding 16 books of different sizes on my wall and making my bedroom look awesome. Great buy.

Duck Cushioned Surface Non-Adhesive Solid Easy Shelf Liner 20-Inch Wide by 4-Feet Long

Duck 877705 20-Inch Wide by 4-Feet Long Cushioned Surface Non-Adhesive Solid Easy Shelf Liner, BlackI needed a heavy shelf liner that was opaque. This product lays very well, cushions the surface, and is substantial. The only problems with it are the shipping (for some reason each roll always arrived individually encased in a box twice as wide and tall as necessary), cutting, and odor in enclosed spaces. The odor eventually dissipates; the cutting itself isn't difficult, but the tiny embedded grid lines are hard to see. I recommend making several marks to guide cutting. Also, if you don't need something this heavy or opaque and you want to be able to slide things in and out on the liner (this one isn't suited to that) see this Warp Brothers #PM210-C 24x10' Clear Ribbed Liner as an alternative.

I love this stuff. I have used it to make a nice-looking cover for our wooden coffee table, desk covers for our two wooden desks, and covers for our wooden nightstands. It is incredibly durable, easy to clean, and has withstood years of hard use. I like that fact that we can prevent damage to our wood furniture from dishes, food, or electronic equipment. It seems a bit pricey, but it is totally worth the money for how durable and versatile it is. I haven't as yet used it as a traditional shelf liner, but I'm sure it would be the best at that job, too.

this is a great product. Had used liners that slip all over the shelf and are not so good for keeping everything in place. This one is washable and extremely hardy!

Fit perfectly on top our tv console center that is now housing a Keurig machine. I wanted something to protect the surface and also absorb some of the minor sound/vibrations from the coffee machine during brewing.

Highly recommend.

This material works very nicely and now lines my rolling tool chest drawers. It's easy to cut and lasts for years. My last purchase of this material was 12 years ago. That material is still in good shape in another tool chest. I tried the perforated type liner material and it disintegrated within a couple of years.

Oenophilia 7-Bottle Minuet Wine Rack

Oenophilia 7-Bottle Minuet Wine RackI thought the assembly required for this wine rack would be no big deal, and its really not. However, the screws don't all fit and it is slightly wobbly. I had no trouble with normal size wine bottles fitting. It does look nice, as long as you don't bump it too much.

The wine rack comes with some minor assembly required. Not a big deal, right? Guess again. I put every ounce of strength into trying to get the bolts to screw into the threaded holes to no avail. They got about half way in and then they would move no more. With the rest of the unit assembled, this caused a heavy wobble. I returned the product for another, which was even worse. This second time I got out some heavy duty pliers to try and force it, still no movement. I gave up and requested a refund.

Long story short, this item is not worth your money.

As other reviewers have noted, the quality control is not so good and results in difficulty in assembly, stripped screws, and/or a wobbly final product. I was able to resolve this with mine (and I bought it with this possibility in mind) if you have a few tools, you can make this work for you, in which case its a good purchase.

In my case, the screw holes were not aligned with the center of the rods, thus making it impossible to attach the screws. All that was needed was a drill with a 3/16th bit, and I was able to widen the holes slightly to handle the misalignment, and get them attached. I used some loctite on the screws, and able to attach them without stripping out the head or the threads, and it feels pretty solid to me.

I received my wine rack today and i put it together in 5 mins. I only had a problem with one of the screws not going in ALL the way but its seriously no big deal.

Several people have complained that it only holds 6 bottles, but really the 7th bottle goes all the way on top of the wine rack. You cant tell frm the picture, but the 7th bottle fits perfectly on top.

I love my new wine rack! for me its sturdy and it looks beautiful on my kitchen counter. The quality of the rack is great for the price I paid ($16.99). I had been debating wether to buy it for several months because of the bad reviews, but im glad i finally did.

Cherry Finish 6 Shelf Bookcase

Cherry Finish 6 Shelf BookcaseI needed a book case, relatively narrow to use in my closet for holding shoes in plastic boxes. I looked all over the internet and found this bookcase to be the best for price and now that I have it, I see just how sturdy it is. Cherry Finish 6 SHELF BOOKCASE

I've yet to get a negative comment on this. I recently purchased a house and two of these for the small library of books I have (both are 95%+ full). I was impressed by the actual quality of this, as were other members of my family. They look a lot more expensive than they really are and are sturdier than they may need to be. Assembly is easy as well. Not sure I would necessarily use them as my "best" shelves, but they are good for if you want to make a library for your house and want to do it inexpensively.

Buy Cherry Finish 6 Shelf Bookcase Now

Incredibly disappointed. Product supposedly marked down from $300, but I have bought better bookcases for much less. I at least expected for this price and based on the products picture, that the back of the bookcase was wood, not just thin plastic veneer. Plus the fact that the assembly directions are not great, leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Future buyers beware! My worst purchase online

Read Best Reviews of Cherry Finish 6 Shelf Bookcase Here

There is no way that this bookcase's original price was $402.56. It's not even real wood; it's that "pressed board" thing. Sometimes on amazon you really do find impossible-to-believe deals, but in this case, you get what you pay for. The item's value is misrepresented.

It took me 4 1/2 hours to assemble it. I am a single woman who has assembled only a bench -which required only an allen wrench (provided!) -and a console table. I have no tools other than a four-way screwdriver. I think that it could be assembled in about 80 or 90 or 100 minutes by a man who has assembled furniture before and who has a decent tool collection. Assembly instructions, although in diagrams only, are fairly clear.

Now that it is assembled and in place, I will say that it looks nice enough. For a graduate student's apartment. I have yet to unpack my boxes full of books and test the strength of the shelves, though. I think and I hope that they will prove sturdy enough.

In truth, I enjoyed spending the 4 1/2 hours putting this thing together, because I learned that I can do it! I can assemble furniture by myself.

Finally, there were no items missing. Everything that was supposed to be included was included. And again, I did it with nothing but a 4-way screwdriver.

I purchased this unit because it was the most affordable 24" wide unit I could find. I needed the 24" width due to space limitations and I wanted something that wasn't just plain black. This fit the bill. It is fairly simple to put together, after all, it is just a bookcase. I think the hardest part was dealing with the two piece back panel. I was wondering why they couldn't just make it one piece with a fold down the middle. Other units I have purchased in the past did it this way. It would eliminate the fussiness of having to assemble the center plastic strip which is annoying but, not insurmountable.

I bought it to hold several years worth of magazines in one locatation. The only drawback is that when I adjust the moveable shelves to the height that works for the space below then the space above the shelf isn't quite tall enough to stand the magazines up on end so they will have to lay flat on those shelves. Not ideal but, it still works. Otherwise, it is a decent shelf that was shipped very quickly and arrived in excellent shape. It was double boxed to avoid shipping damage. This turned out to be a very good idea as the unit is pretty heavy and the outer box showed signs of being manhandled during shipping. I am sure it was due to the size and weight and those package guys have to move pretty quickly to meet their schedules. The communication from the shipper was excellent and the whole transaction went well. I would buy from this seller again if I need another item they carry.

Chrome Storage Shelves

Honey-Can-Do SHF-01456 Closet Organizing Shelving Unit, 4-Tier, SHF-01456One person can set these up in a few minutes.

They look good, are solid as a rock, and absolutely stable.

Easily adjust any shelf thanks to convenient markings on the posts and clips that keep the shelf where you set it.

Actually 5-tier shelves since you can position the bottom shelf as high off the floor as you like and store stuff under it.

One useful configuration is to place the bottom shelf six inches off the ground, the next shelf six inches above that, the next shelf six inches below the top, and the top shelf at the top. That allows you to store shoes on the bottom shelf and under it, hang coats on the next to top shelf, and store gloves, hats and scarves on the next to top and top shelves. (I have one set up like this in my garage for winter coats, boots, gloves, etc.)

We had previously been using plastic shelving like Rubbermaid 7086 72-Inch Five-Shelf Shelving Unit but after filling all of the shelves, it got pretty darn wobbly, to the point where we felt we had to be extra careful stacking and unstacking boxes from them. Enter Honey-Can-Do SHF-01456 4-Tier Closet Organizing Shelving Unit!!! The look is kinda cold but in our little basement warehouse filled with junk these are perfect! The height can be customized for each shelf, and they hold sooo much more weight without wobbling at all. Our plastic ones don't do that. highly recommended

Whoever though this up must have gotten an A in engineering.

This is the most simple thing I have ever put together.

It is also much sturdier than any plastic shelving and looks nice too.

I will be using it for kitchen appliances and tools.

If you need some stable shelving that can take a lot of weight

do not overlook this item.

I was a little nervous when I saw the legs come in 2 pieces that screw together, this is usually not a good sign for strength and durability. But once it was put together and we could test out the stability and solidness of the shelves, we were impressed. Substantially cheaper than it's counterparts like Whitmor and Seville but apparently just as good.
