Breathtaking Diy Photo Ledge
I then marked where on the ledges the studs would be and used my drill and drill bit to pre-drill holes for hanging.
Diy photo ledge. I love that these cost us under 20 to put together and they really make a big impact in our home. Simple budget friendly and totally customizable. Its perfect for a commitment-phobe because you can change out the frames or pictures as often as youd like.
Mark where your studs are located on the back board of your ledge. If you can attached the shelf to at least 2 studs you will have a sturdy place to lean photos and decor without worry of it falling. To create the back and bottom of your photo ledge glue and clamp the side of the 1 x 75 board to the edge of the 25 x 75 board.
Allow the glue to set a few minutes. Which sounds more complicated then it actually was so please just refer to the picture below. We used regular wood screws and just touched up the screw heads with a bit of black paint to help them blend in.
Do not let your favorite paintings rest in the drawers when you can show them off and win yourself lots of praise. A DIY Picture Ledge is a perfect option to display assorted art. After It was glued together I secured it with screws.
To assemble my ledge I used wood glue and glued 1 of the 1 X 2s onto the 1 X 4 and the second. We have Kregs K5 Master System and LOVE it. Now you can predrill holes in your ledge for hanging.
Using the stain color of your choice spread a layer on each board and wipe off the excess. 1 X 2 was glued to the front of the 1 X 4. So creating the pair of these pretty in design wall mounted frame ledges to put all your artistic work on a cool and fun display that would also add a lot of custom appeal to your homey spaces too.
