A freestanding shelf assembly includes a pair of base frames, a bottom shelf panel, a first pair of support frames, and a plurality of screws. Each base frame has an elongate rail portion extending horizontally between vertical leg portions terminating at a horizontal top portion with a hole therein. The bottom shelf panel has a plurality of holes through its surface and positioned over the pair of base frames such that each hole aligns with a corresponding hole of the base frames. Each support frame has an elongate support portion extending horizontally between vertical leg portions terminating at a horizontal bottom portion having a hole. Each screw passes through respective holes of the first pair of support frames and through respective holes of the bottom shelf panel, and threadably engages respective holes of the base frames, to form the freestanding shelf assembly.
