Shell bracket shelf

This is how I found the shelf bracket at Marshalls. It had gold and was painted different colors.

I painted the shell bracket shelf with my wall color (SW Pacer White) with some burnt umber mixed in with the paint to create the shadowed areas.

Then I pained all the high spots with the straight Pacer White color.

I attached it to the wall in my Guest room.

The shelf seems to grow out of the wall and has just enough definition to make out all the shell shapes. Great shadows with low lighting.
