The Wallflower - anywhere, anytime stroage and workspace
The Wallflower re-siteable shelf system provokes two thoughts: 'why didn't I think of that?' and 'why hasn't it been done before?'
No drilling or fixing; a tool-free solution to storing and/or working in different locations as the need arises. The Wallflower works courtesy of innovative design, the laws of Physics and and Sir Isaac Newton: gravity rules - OK.
Angled legs plus weight of contents pushes the Wallflower against the wall and four elastic buffers on the back create a non-slip stable connection. Move it where and when you want - how cool is that?
