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.
