Here it is folks! The winter edition of the unofficial Pinterest Challenge, as created by Katie B. from the blog Bower Power and explained in further detail right here on Young House Love. For this “challenge,” which is basically a self-imposed challenge to get some of those Pinterest projects that we all have tons of pinned, and turn them into things we’ve actually DONE!
So without further adieu, I share with you the dresser drawers turned wall shelves that I decorated and styled up for this challenge:
When I left off on the installation process of these shelves, they looked like this:
Getting them all prettied and decked up was a fairly simple project. I just used some decorative wrapping paper, from World Market, cut to size and then adhered the paper to the “backs” (technically the drawer bottoms) of the shelves using double-stick tape:
So much prettier and happier looking than the dull, brown backgrounds, don’t you think!?
And as far as “styling” the shelves, I just grabbed some books, bookends, and other little knickknacks I had on other shelves around the house and quickly arranged them to have some photos for this challenge post.

Thanks for looking!!!
VERY NICE! What did you use to mount them on the wall? —I really love how this looks!
Thanks! I just used basic drywall anchors and screws
