DIY Bracket Decoration

i’ve always said that decorating one’s home need not be expensive if you know how to use your creativity.  Brackets like the above picture is like a gold bullion of ideas – when it is shown to someone who is handy and who uses their imagination.  I saw this at Real Simple and thought to myself – what wonderful idea -especially for those who are just starting out – in their own apartment – and for those who are doing up their dorm room for college or university – why not try this.  A few brackets and some oldist book to and some screws and there you have it – but make sure you don’t put too much or too heavy stuff on them.  A really good idea for a few bucks.
