In this short review, we would like to share with you one cool, in our opinion, idea - a hidden shelf in the armrest of a sofa. This may especially appeal to those who manufacture furniture.
By and large, the idea itself is quite original: use the free space in the armrest of the sofa to good use.
The shelf turned out to be two-tier, which is also very convenient: on the first "floor" you can place bottles with alcohol, while the upper shelf can be used to store different things.
Design features
Actually, making the drawer itself is very simple, and this will require a minimum of materials. It is only necessary to provide for the possibility of its installation at the stage of designing the sofa.
To make a shelf, the author uses boards, but one can also make plywood. First, markup is performed, and then the author drills holes for fasteners.
Next, the two most ordinary rectangular shelves are assembled, after which it is necessary to connect them together using boards mounted vertically.
The front part is sheathed with the same material that was used for the upholstery of the sofa, and the author made a handle from a piece of a building corner.
