WATCH: Juliet’s storage solution for a narrow hallway

While no one is quite sure who started it, many people in the Facebook group Kmart Hacks and Decor have created extra storage in their kitchen without fixing anything to their walls. The secret? Kmart’s 3 Tier Floor Caddy and a piece of wood from Bunnings. 

One of those clever DIYers is Veronica. Sharing a picture of her shelves in the Facebook group, she wrote: “I don’t know who started this trend, but oh my god, I’m obsessed!”

“We couldn’t drill a shelf as we have gas behind the wall.. purchased 2 of the Kmart 3 Tier Floor Caddy and a piece of wood from Bunnings, and there you have it!”

“I can’t wait to do this hack”

Commenters in the group love this idea, and rightly so. No drilling is required; the shelf can be removed and moved around if needed.
