Hello everyone,
I am new here in this forum and I have a question for all Ikea experts.

About half a year ago, when we moved from a 3-room apartment to a single-family house, we furnished our living room completely with IKEA furniture.

Since my two biggest hobbies are reading and listening to music, and I collect both books and CDs, I set up a reading corner and a music wall with Hemnes furniture. The reading corner consists of two white Hemnes shelves 90 cm wide. The music wall consists of two Hemnes shelves 90 cm on the right and left and in the middle the 3-piece TV bench with the matching wall shelf above. This entire wall is black-brown, as is our Hemnes living room table. I think the combination of white and black-brown really looks very good. To pick up the white again, we have the Poäng armchair as a reading chair with a white cover.

Now to my question:

As already mentioned above, the shelves in the music wall are intended to accommodate my CD collection. However, the distances between the individual shelves are very large and, unlike with Billy, it is not possible to purchase individual shelves and there are no holes for additional shelves. Unfortunately, the shelf is already full with my collection and I urgently need more space.

Is there a way to get individual shelves for Hemnes shelves? And if yes, what would be the best way to install them?

I have already asked at my IKEA store and even called the hotline but they could not help me either.

hello,
I would take a board to a good specialized wood store and have a few suitable boards cut there. with stain (a little might be appropriate) the color can be adjusted.
otherwise, the only option would probably be to get lucky in the bargain basement or to buy a complete shelf.

So, I don't think the hardware store idea is very good. I already did that with another shelf and you could immediately see that they were different boards. You'll never manage to make it look like real Hemnes boards. I have already been to three different Ikea stores in the bargain corner and, of course, had no luck. Then I called the service number, hung in the waiting loop for hours to ask if the boards are available anywhere in the bargain corner. But they couldn't give me any information. Isn't there any way to find out if these boards are available in any bargain corner? There must be some way to get individual boards from a store like Ikea...

Hi hemnes1974,

I don't have a solution for your shelf problem, but as a music fan you might be interested in another unusual CD storage on the wall. On my CD shelf wall, only my most beautiful CD covers from my collection hang on the wall, but it looks really cool.

Apparently, you can't upload pictures directly....
