It’s so easy to leave manga around wherever, run out of space from having too many, or just not enough room among other personal belongings. Storing on a wall can add more space and create creative ways to show off or to make a more pleasant environment. The one above in the image can be found here on a site called Etsy. Browsing the site will lead to many other designed goods and many sellers at the site even offer custom work.

Give the appearance of manga on the wall without something holding it there with the Conceal or Z Shelf wall shelves by Miron Lior. The designer’s site is Flash based, so the items can’t be linked to directly but one can select the times in the shop tab to find where to buy. Conceal is the small and inexpensive one that doesn’t show the shelving and Z Shelf has a zig zag design that holds the books on their side. Slip the cover around the metal bit and there are small parts that hold the cover from opening. Always remember to find the studs in the wall to make sure the shelving is held tightly to the wall.

Bed readers can enjoy bedside lighting with easy access to their reading with the Lili Light. One half of it stores while the other half has the light that turns on and off if there is a book laying above it. Works as a bookmark without having to stick something inside your manga and has a manual switch if you don’t want to lay a book there for extended periods of time.

If looking for something custom or homemade, try out this tutorial on how to make your own upside down shelf. There’s five steps and the tutorial author even suggests glueing toys or small things to finish off the illusion.
