We wanted to make some shelves to put up in the studio, so we thought it'd be the opportunity to show you three ways to make custom floating shelves that are affordable and pretty easy to do, and who better to show you all than Rochelle, our resident builder! Using construction lumber and some pretty basic hardware and tools, Rochelle goes through these three methods, she will let you know what the pros and cons are to each one so you can pick and choose your favourite! Let us know in the comments what method you would go for!

Who wants to see a Becky&Kelsey vs Rochelle&Rachel diy or styling challenge? Like that one the did with their boyfriends: OG sorry girls vs new sorry girls 🙋🏼♂️
It could also be fun to do a homeowner vs renter challenge. For example, two different ways to do a built-in look.
That would be fun!
Yes!!!
Me!!
Original vs new doesn't appeal to me at all, It doesn't seem fair. I'd do Kelsey&Rachel vs. Becky&Rochelle ❤
Rochelle is always so thorough when explaining projects! Love to see her leading her own videos.
Shout out to Rochelle for giving me yet another skill to impress my retired-builder grandfather with! 😍
Rochelle gives me confidence that I could do this. She's a great addition to he team
I agree ☝️
Did you notice Rochelle wearing gloves to avoid splinters, etc. while picking out her lumber? Smart !
No etc
There is something so relaxing and enjoyable about watching an absolute BOSS just work it out. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Slay, Rochelle.
Rochelle is such a natural teacher. Love this series!
This format, with the three methods followed by pros and cons? WONDERFUL. Rochelle is doing a great job at making things feel extremely doable, and now I want to put shelves EVERYWHERE
Rochelle's Kim Possible attire is EVERYTHING 💯
P.S. Could you do a How To Go Do episode on how to use a circular saw please and thank you!
Oof I would love a circular saw tricks and tips video! I bought one from Amazon like three months ago and it’s just sat in the box bc I’m terrified of it 🫣
Rochelle rocked this- teaching and showing the "why" so that everything made sense! She's very real in how she speaks to the camera, can't wait for more from her!
Tip for the first kind of shelf; the LACK shelf from IKEA uses that kind of hardware, but with just one long bracket and several pegs. Meaning, easier install, and they’re most often sold second hand for very cheap ☺️
Yes! I was thinking exactly the same thing
You hit the nail on the head. "Love the natural light hate the natural sound." In a world where even 10-year-olds get really good camera and sound equipment because they make TikToks it would be really cool if the sorry girls would tackle some easy ,efficient, or even inexpensive (?) Soundproofing methods.
The house I bought used to be an asylum and there are a ton of small features built into soundproofing that they clearly needed for the people who here recovering. There's strategic paper on the walls and the thickness of the doors and additional insulation inside the walls. So unless I open a window or stand next to an external door I can't tell I have neighbors. I can't even hear the train go by. But I know that there are easy ways or renter friendly ways right? That seems like a DIY project you could teach us how to do.
Pro tip - make sure you call the big box store to see if their saws are working before you go - that way you won't be disappointed when you go to purchase the lumber
Not a "pro" tip, If you are a pro, you'd have a ton of saws and not be calling HD ! ;) Btw in Toronto it's a rare day they actually pick up the phone lol
Rochelle is the best thing that could have happened to this channel. Her content is amazing.
i'm such a girl, so just want to say Rochelle's hair is super cute blown out and I didn't realize how long it is. Will always be a fan of the curls but for this video thumbs up
I love how informative and educational Rochelle’s videos are! Great job as always!
Ah I love her vibe and how every Sorry Girl has their own take ❤
WOW these are great! They were all new methods to me. I'm from the L bracket generation. 😀
Adding "Mortise" to the list of words that would be cute baby names if they weren't already a word 😂
this is my favourite trend
wow, another amazing video. I would watch an entire LIVE of Rochelle just explaining everything DIY.
So, Rochelle is just a total natural!
I loved watching her - I learned a lot and she has a great energy.
It would be so fun to see an updated tour of the space now that so much have changed😍
Rochelle makes this easy for me to do! We just moved and are fixing up our house! Thank you Rochelle and Becky!
Really good explanations!
I would add another con for the third version: You will need an (north?)american style wall. I never tried to drill a hole at an angle in a brick wall, but it would definitly be not as easy as described.😂
4:00 “love the natural light, but hate the natural sound” 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 she slayed shes iconic
This is such a helpful video!! I love the floating shelf look and didn't want to pay for a bunch of brackets, but I certainly have a dowel or two in my woodworking supplies! I'm about to be a menace and have floating shelves all over this house 😍
Rochelle, you're a natural at this! I need to put up some baseboard and window trim. Can you show me how?
Thank you for addressing purchasing lumber in store 🙌 I find it super overwhelming so thank you for making it easy to understand!
Love watching the sorry fam grow! Thanks for another super practical and informative video Rochelle and team!
I would die for a USM Haller DIY from the Sorry Girls. So chic but sooo expensive 🥲
I have been watching so many videos on floating shelves and this was by far the best! You explained things so clearly and made this task seem super achievable! I am so excited to follow your steps when making my floating shelves
Rochelle! As a curly haired girl, I love your curls so much - that being said I wasn’t fully watching the tv and had to double take when I saw you with straight hair! You look fab!
Also, you make skills so easy!
I love that you added the pros and cons for each method. Very helpful!
the tiny bar cart robot!!! i love him!!!!!!
Floating shelves have always seemed so daunting. Great tips!
This is Rochelle’s best video yet! Loved this one, and i love seeing her interact with the camera person and people in the background. Her personality is showing and it’s cute! ALSO. I willll be using the dowel method Thank uuu!
Great job, Rochelle! Love the “3 ways” concept enabling us to adapt the project based on what we have/are comfortable with, etc.. And the method pros/cons? Chef’s kiss! Also, umm… “lazy” or efficient? 😉
The Michelle Branch at the end, yes! 🎵❤ also, great video!!! Never knew there were floating shelf alternative methods to the standard floating hardware
Okay but Rochelle has no business being such a badass cutie patootie
Thanks for all the options! Can I suggest that you make a silicone mold of our little bar cart robot mini? They're used in final touches where they always look perfect in the setting. Maybe having more than one is the answer! Mini robot barcarts for every room! You get a mini! And You get a mini!
ROCHELLE SINGING MICHELLE BRANCH IS ALL I NEEDED TODAY. 😂😅❤🎉 love you all
I love pocket holes. haha They are so, so clever.❤
We need merch immediately! Beep beep beep! Love the natural light. Hate the natural sound. YES! I need this on a sticker and a t- shirt stat!
I love Rochelle so much. Such a sweet and genuine vibe, absolutely an amazing addition to the team.
OMG Rochelle--you're amazing! You explained everything so well and obviously have the skills to do them all!! Well done!!
Ooh I love the holder for the glasses on the bottom shelf! Super cute 🥰
Well done Rochelle!
Loved this video! Super clear & omg the pocket hole version is fab!!!
I would love to see a video on how to use a router! It seems like a useful tool.😊
A 4th con for the pockethole-version: you can't use it on concrete/brick walls because of the angle for the ankers.
Alexandra Gater's Dad did the second method in her kitchen, looked amazing
best video for floating shelves!! thanks for the pros and cons :)
Rochelle, I love your natural hair but I know it’s fun to do something different…and the straight style looks beautiful too🥰
loveeeee! this is coming at the perfect time for me. thank you Rochelle!!!
Metal bracket one is my favourite. Not so much worrying if it'll stay up!
I love everything Rochelle does, she explains it so well! Now I just need a video on how to mount anything on unpredictable European walls 🥲
The DIY floating shelf video I’ve been waiting for! 🙏
I'm addicted to pocket hole drilling. It's so satisfying to do.
“Love the natural light but hate the natural sound” too real🤣
Could you please do a short on how to install these into brick walls? I'm from South Africa and our houses are all brick (including interior walls) 😅
Simple explanations like this make me feel soo empowered
I would love a quick good tools to have when starting home diys!
Omg the end... 'HELLO?!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Rochelle ❤️❤️❤️
This was a great video! I loved getting to see more of Rochelle’s personality come through while being super informative 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻
Thanks Rochelle! I would love to see how to fix mortar in a brick wall. Who else has an old brick wall or non-working fireplace, where mortar has crumbled in places and needs fixing/updating? It is SO expensive to get a pro to do it! I feel like this is something every DIYer & home owner should know 😊😊
I think these kinds of videos will be great for people who are specifically wanting to build a shelf. For those of us more interested in overall design , less so. Rochelle is clearly a great addition for her technical skills.
absolutely love your teaching style!
Rochelle is coming out of her shell yasss🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😎😎😎😎😎😎
love rochelle.what a nice addition!
Thank you so much for all the tips and explanations, I feel like I could do this now!
I’m cracking up at 13/32tooths. Hahahahaa! 13/32nds loving this as it’s a project I’m about to tackle! Cheers!
Rochelle, you are a GREAT teacher! Thanks
Can I just say your hair is stunning all straightened. You would never know it’s usually such tight curls. Major hair envy. As always, love hearing your soothing voice & learning all your tips and tricks
The little robot is becoming the “Where’s Waldo” of the Sorry Girls.
I- LOVE- THISSSSSSSSSS In puerto rico we have cement as walls so it's pretty hard to get shelves - SO TRYING THE SCREWS ONLY ONE!!!
So much personality. All 4 hosts have such great identities, tbh. Great video. And like how u taught us multiple methods for one task!
Video concepts:
Would like to have a wood tour shopping explaination at an average box store. Theres so many options and so many different markings indicating different processing it just gets too much. Rochelle can 100% make it easy to understand to navigate and select the right wood for a project!
And 2nd suggestion: would like an explanation on anchors. Project hanging a hammock chair or weight baring object like a swing for a nursery, and wanting to select the right anchor that holds up 300 lbs (per se).
I was trying to figure out what was different about this video....Rochelle love the hair 😂😂😂
i was hoping this was a rochelle video! they get me so inspired to build cool stuff
Such a helpful guide. I needed this info rn. Thank you!
I love that mini robot, would be fun if you guys sold a kit and we could make it ourselves
The pros and cons tops it, nice one Rochelle 💪🏾
Excellent new format!!! I love and misses the tutorial style, three different methods is Awesome, and I love how you showed manual vs. power tool ways to accomplish the same goals!
Loved this! And best Rochelle video yet 🎉 You were so chill!
this was so helpful and informative!! i'm curious tho, can they each support the same amount of weight and will they sag over time?
Love Rochelle
Yyyyyyyyaaaasss!!! Loved this!!! And I had never seen that pocket hole method before. Awesome shelf DIYs Rochelle!!!!
i walked away from this video much more knowledgeable and also with 'all you wanted' stuck in my head - thanks rochelle! 😅
Now I am going to have to do those shelves and YES I have a pocket hole jig!!! Thanks so much for all the helpful information.
im just making my first floating rounded corner shelf so its really helpful to learn other ways to make floating shelves
Thank you SOOO much for this video, already know what I'm using the pocket hole jig version on!!!
Thank you for the different steps ☺️
Get itttttt queen! Rochelle KILLING IT with the skills and charm 💪✨ so so so so SO excited to watch you shiiiiine
Pocket holes for the win!! Such great content. Super informative video. 🏆🏆🏆
Such great information. I love all of the methods but the last was so simply done. I will remember that when I am doing my next project. Thanks!!! ♥️✌🏼
Love this! Super helpful video. Thank you!
Oh I am so coming back to this video
Thank you so much , I have been looking on pinterest home to do floating shelf, but your video is way better. 😊
These was super instructive 👌🏼 thanks you so much for those explanations👏🏼
I need to put shelves up in my new place, so this was perfect! Sending love from indiana 😘
Excellent tutorial -- thanks so much!
