Sorry for getting this to you all a little bit late, ok lets begin.
I made this things with balsa wood, it is very light, the width of this pieces I found at a craft store is somewhere around 3.3 inches.


So first get everything ready.

I am using a metal ruler as you can see.  now mark to little "x" where the holes where the ribbon will go on the  9.5" piece wich will be the back of the shelve

Now I will open the holes with a soldering iron
