When you’ve got a home office space to put together, there’s nothing like some DIY rustic shelves for the office. They add a unique charm that stock shelves just don’t have! I don’t know about you, but I’d much rather work in a home office with some rustic flair. So today I’ve got some inspiration for you in the form of DIY rustic shelves for the office. Even if you live in the city they’ll work for you too!

DIY Rustic Shelves For The Office

Don’t you just love a good rustic-industrial vibe? Wood in its natural state is always rustic and appealing, and it even works for office shelves. And who says you have to keep files on your DIY rustic shelves? I love the use of succulents here. Not only are these office shelves DIY rustic, but they match the natural wood desk with its metal industrial-style legs. This home office is one place where I could definitely spend a lot of time. What do you think?

These DIY rustic shelves for the office can be easily replicated with wood crates turned on their sides. And that gives you a ton of ways to finish and arrange them. If you get started now, you can have rustic office shelves like these tomorrow.

Some 1×4 or 1×2 hardwood lumber is all you need to build your own DIY rustic shelves for the office completely from scratch. Every part of this shelving unit is DIY, and I love the look. Sand and stain the wood, measure and cut, and then screw it all together. Are you going to build one?

I chose this example for its modern-industrial vibe. Paint DIY rustic shelves black to increase the modern feel if that’s what you prefer. The accessories displayed on the shelves are rustic, and I think the whole look is enormously appealing!
