This handy shelf is the perfect solution for almost any room. It creates a storage surface and will upgrade your window’s style, too!
Molding Magic. One simple way to customize your shelf is to add edging made from molding. It provides a design element and keeps items on the shelf secure.
Start by cutting your shelf board to length. Then cut decorative molding to create edging for the shelf. This is easy to do with a miter box and handsaw.
Apply adhesive to the shelf and the ends of the molding pieces. Press the molding in place against the board.
Secure decorative brackets to your window trim. Then place the shelf on the brackets, and drive in screws to connect the components.
This useful project can suit any decor style. Since home centers and online retailers carry many types of brackets and decorative molding, you’re sure to get exactly the look you want.
