My 13 year old daughter and I built these ledges together. We changed the plan just slightly to make two 36" ledges for her bedroom. She was able to do a lot of it, which was very cool. They are very "rustic" and she loves them. I am really shocked at how sturdy they are! Perfect for displaying some of her trophies that I was previously too afraid to let her put up in her room.
Thanks so much to Ana for giving us the courage to build things of our own!
