Most of you know that we recently finished remodeling our home. One thing we added during the remodel were picture ledges. I had been wanting these forever but I wasn’t sure where I wanted to put them and could never find any premade ones that were long enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

Once we started getting further along in the remodel and could visualize where everything was going to go, my hubby suggested putting the ledges in our breakfast room. I am so glad we decided on this spot because I love having our family photos in the breakfast area and they’re right outside our master, so I get to see them every day \ud83d\ude42\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We gave our carpenter the specifications we wanted and he made them for us but you can easily make these with just a few materials. We wanted ours deep enough to layer frames and long enough for our breakfast wall.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For each ledge, we used 2 (1×4’s) and 1 (1×2)<\/span><\/p>\n

You can find a tutorial here<\/a> on how to make your own. Please note, the tutorial uses different dimensions of wood than I used, but you can adjust the sizes to your preference.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Here’s a side angle, so you can get an idea of how the edges look.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I am so happy with these and love that I can easily swap the photos out and move the frames around. Our frames are all from Ikea and can be found here.<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
