I've been wanting the pottery barn decorative ledge forever! I saw the picture online and was hoping I could find a tutorial for it. I ran across a couple but they weren't quite as big as the original and I wanted it to hang above my king size bed. So yesterday I headed out to my garage where I new I had a bunch of scraps/leftovers from my projects as well as my neighbor brought over some of his scap wood. I printed of the PB picture and wrote down the dimensions and got to work! This was my final result.
Estimated Cost
I only bought one piece of trim for $6.36.
Estimated Time Investment
Day Project (6-9 Hours)
Finish Used
I stained with a chocolate brown stain. I then brushed a light coat of white sanded/distressed and then brushed stain on and wiped it off.
