Make your own wooden magazine rack and showcase your favorite book or magazine covers. This step-by-step pictorial by a South Korean blogger on Naver will walk you through the process.
The display case requires minimal materials: wooden planks, nails and rubber-coated wire of your color choice. You can even choose different-colored wood. The back plank of wood is purposely unpolished for a rustic look, though it is finished with a wood coating to avoid splinters. The finished product can be hung on the wall or placed against the wall on a desktop.
The imperfect, lop-sided shape of the back plank adds a natural look to your room. It is vintage-inspired for modern thrifters who are seeking quick and inexpensive home decor.
