DIY Picture Frame Ledge

Needless to say my enthusiasm quickly hit a wall when I could not find the much coveted picture frame ledge of my dreams in a reasonable price. […]
West Elm Inspired DIY Floating Mirror
I seem to have a thing for decorating with mirrors…which is weird since I hate walking past them in a room and seeing myself at every glance.
