WEAVE YOUR WAY Colorful woven strips brighten a plain bookcase, this
photo. First, plan your pattern and determine the number of vertical webbing
strips you’ll need to cover the width of the area. To find the length of the
strips, measure the height of the shelf and add 8 inches. Cut strips of flat
nylon webbing and heat-seal each end. Starting in the center, wrap a strip
around the bookcase frame and hot-glue the end of the strip to itself on
the inside of the unit. Secure with clamps while the glue dries. Continue
with remaining vertical strips. Repeat for the horizontal webbing, weaving
between the vertical strips and gluing to the other strips if necessary.
