Vintage Corbel Shelf



I bought these two vintage corbels and needed to find a use for them. I had a piece of thick glass I picked up curbside, they worked perfectly together. To hang the corbels to the wall...you'll absolutely need to get a stud finder and locate the studs. If your studs are 14" apart...you will be hanging your corbels at 14". Toe Nail the nails through the pre-drilled corbel hole and put the nail right into the stud. Make it SECURE. The glass piece just sits on top of the flat part of the corbel. Since mine were a bit wonky, I sanded them down. I added two little rubber stoppers (they come with glue) to the wood and put the glass on top of it.
