DIY || Book Ledge

I didn’t anticipate making the bookshelf for my daughters bedroom… I actually bought another one and had it shipped! But after I slowly put the room together I realized that I wanted the books to be more of a little art piece on the wall. I found this scallop wood (which are actually made for underneath corrugated roofs) and I decided to get a little creative with them. I made some boxes with the wood and then glued then nailed them onto the bottom. These scallop pieces would also work with Ikea book ledges as well!

After some sanding and paint (Edamame by Sherwin Williams) I mounted them to the wall making sure I hit the studs.

See below for the process video!

Hope you enjoy this DIY :)
