Default how to build in shelves cottage style

I want to build in shelves along a 10' long wall, floor to ceiling shelves.
I want them to be cottage/country style. I also want them to be cheap but
look really good. Can anyone guide me to online resources with pictures of
something similar, or even of a different style, so I can get some idea of
how to build these? I'm thinking about using those thick construction grade
boards that are about 3" wide, and making each shelf with three or four of
them run side by side. Then painted white and maybe some sort of paint
treatment to make them look antique. I have no idea how to do vertical
supports. Don't want to buy shelf brackets. Too expensive since I would
need a large quantity. Any ideas about something I can build? Thanks.
