Mrs. Limestone,

Thanks for stopping by! To answer your question, we love, love, love our brackets. We buy these same guys every time, and like we mentioned, we used 2 pieces of MDP bonded together (rather than the Ikea standards). In our office, we have a pile of books and a few frames, and it’s holding up just great! In addition, the hubs never uses the anchors that come with the product: we almost always us 30lb anchors (if not 50) on most things!

And thank you, our blog design was whipped up by our neighbor over at Halverson Creative.

Very nice. How do you like the brakcets? Im afraid of buying floating shelves from Ikea for fear they will come crashing down in a week. Do you think they will hold a serious load (like books, papers, etc)

Love the design of your blog by the way!

Thanks for the feedback! Since orange is my favorite color, I’ll force it to go with anything. Why not, right?

Okay you asked for a comment here…like the shelves, but would not think of yellow with orange and soft blue…but, to each his own. Applauding you guys for trying anything, go go Var-go.

Looks good! I say it was worth the effort–breathing room is always nice!
