This is the first shelf I've ever built! I've made a couple workbenches before but never a shelf. Hopefully the first of many we've got a few places around the house that need better storage

Nice enough, but I would've followed the stairs along the bottom shelf so it sits flush.

Railing is already there though. Probably didn’t want to change or work around it.

And IMO that’s a nice spot for one or two pairs of boots down there, and a shorter pair of shoes or slippers can go up on the step.

I was originally going to follow the stairs but decided not to for a couple reasons. I like having that extra space down there for shoes, I was already hitting the limits of what I know how to do and needed to keep the design simple, also with it like this if I move it I can make one circular saw cut and it will sit flat
