Using crates and support brackets for storage

I saw this cute idea on Pinterest.


All you need is crates and support brackets.  These could hang in a bathroom for towels, toilet paper and toiletries or in a playroom for toys or in a living room for decor.  Any bracket design will work.  It just depends on your use and taste.

West Elm has these awesome apple crates.


Uline has blue milk crates for $10 each.

Hanging console using support brackets

You can use support brackets to hang a shelf or console.  It saves room and can help with storage issues.  A shelf looks great and simple in your foyer to hold keys and mail.  Hang a console in your living or dining room for storage or to hold decorative items.  You could hang one under your television to hold remotes, DVD's and more.
