DIY Photo Ledge


I was recently checking out different photography websites and came across a great, easy, and inexpensive photo display idea. The materials needed are easy to find and it will cost less than $15 to create this DIY Photo Ledge.



Materials Needed-
  1. Plastic Cap Moulding  - I found a 8 ft. strip for less than $3 at Lowe's.
  2. Adhesive Strips - Also less than $3 at Lowe's.
  3. Scissors or utility blade.
  4. Measuring Tape (optional).
  5. Beer.
  6. Pictures- I printed 4X6 with white borders from Costco, but polaroids or smaller prints would also work great.
The process is pretty straightforward-
  1. Cut the Plastic Cap Moulding to the desired length.
  2. Apply Adhesive Strips to Moulding.
  3. Measure (or eyeball) where you want to place Moulding on the wall.
  4. Stick Moulding to wall.
  5. Add pictures.
  6. Drink beer, look at pictures, Enjoy!



Along with the low cost and easy setup, this photo ledge looks great and the pictures are easily changed out. So, you can keep up pics of the family or get creative and change them with the season.
