Best way to hang wall shelves
I have this idea for wall shelves but this will have the edge of the material flush against the wall. Not sure if I should modify the design to account for mounting or if there's another good solution for hanging it
@henry i don't understand what you're asking. do the smaller pieces go vertically against the wall and the larger pieces slide into the slots and become the shelves? which edges are flush against the wall and why is that a problem?
I added labels, the vertical wall slats will need to be attached to the wall. Yes, the shelves slot into the vertical wall slats. It's a problem because I'm not sure how to hang the wall slats

You could add some names under the Shape tab to the sections to let us know which are horizontal and which are vertical?
