I was ready to buy this marble shelf at CB2 a couple months ago, but they didn't have it in stock, and couldn't, (read: wouldn't), sell me the floor model. Naturally, I pouted my way to the Starbucks across the street, because what's more basic than a marble white shelf, and Starbucks right?
Rather than wait to order online, I thought making my own, (cheaper), version of it would be a fun project! I was right, and I'm so happy with the results! Check it out >>>
You will need :
- Marble contact paper $8
- Rustoleum Gold (or rose gold) $4
- Shelf Brackets $6
- Shelf $3 (or repurpose one you already have like I did!)
CB2 $59 VS. aj $21
. Spray shelf brackets with Rustoleum. I had both rose gold and gold on hand and played with rose! Best part is, if I tire of the rose, I can spray over it with Gold.
. While brackets dry, map out your contact paper plan. I approached it like wrapping a present.
. Once you've cut the contact paper to fit the size of your board, peel of the back of the marble paper, and you're ready to cover the shelf.
. Screw in your brackets and hang your new favorite display piece!
