I’m redoing my cave, I might have mentioned.
And in doing so, I wanted to do something with the pile of very small (art-card size and up) flat art I’ve accumulated over the years.
I finally decided on picture ledges after a bit of googling, and, having done that, said to myself, “Hey, doesn’t Ana White have a pattern for that?”
Ana White has a pattern for everything. She’s this DIY guru who puts together easy-to-understand patterns for furniture. Much of what she does is knockoffs of high-end catalog stuff.
And she happens to have a Ten-Dollar Ledge plan!
So I’m gonna make three 32″ ledges!
My lumber cost me $15.51 after discount and tax, so I guess there’s been a bit of inflation. But still! Compared to the price of a single shelf anywhere…!
Now, of course, I’m gonna have more shelf than I have small art – so, where can I buy art* that fit in frames 6×8″ or smaller?
* Like, from independent crowdfunded artists, not posters.com or such.

The itty bitty art (ATCs/ACEOs) I have is mostly from either Sketchfest or Etsy, or occasionally trading with someone.
I should start haunting sketchfest. And Etsy 🙂
Sketchfest is fun! I say that largely as someone who goes to be encouraged to make stuff, though.
