The mum-of-three, 30, who's been delighting her 3.1 million Instagram followers with her home hacks, took to social media to show exactly how she created the shelves.
She wrote: "Pickle is playing in the pool with Hoe (Joe), so I'm sitting in the garden trying to make shelves out of these old crates."
The crafty mum first intended to use the crates as plant beds, but hilariously admitted to being '"rubbish at growing anything," so decided to make the shelves instead.
Armed with empty crates and screw hooks, Stacey got to work on manually screwing in the hooks along one of the wood panels.

To hang the new shelves, Stacey used Command stick on hooks rather than drilling holes in the fence.
She admitted she hates drilling holes until she's certain the new fixture will remain in its position.
The savvy mum shared a snap of the completed shelves, which were hung at different heights on the garden fence.
Inside, she placed some plants and a candle to decorate, while garden tools hung from the gold hooks.
Adding to the aesthetics of it all, Stacey sprayed the fence with the garden hose to pull off the stained wood effect, but admitted that painting the fence was definitely on her to-do list.
Maybe that will be her next DIY job? We can't wait to see the finished look.
