Cool, simple but affective. By the way Welcome to LJ’s, its good to have you here with us.

Very nice, what type of hanging method did you use to attach to the wall? I have seen a couple of different ways to do it.

My wife wants some of these…add it to the list! I would also be interested in how you attached them.

Thanks guys.

I got the measurements of the shelves based on the 1.5” x 1.5” [poplar] piece I used to ‘anchor’ the shelves to the wall. Drilled’em to the studs then slid the actual shelves around them and drilled them in.

Actually – this video helps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnCA5vNtJLk&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PLEE6D1DB05E263116

They make a bracket where i just used the one piece of poplar. I’d say it’s up to you – depending on what you’re putting on the shelves.
