Get Your Mind in the Gutter

I keep seeing pin after pin of rain gutter shelves for little ones and I finally convinced my hubby it would be the perfect addition to our little one's room. (click on pictures to enlarge)

She LOVES her new bookshelves and wants to be read to even more now than before!  It was a very easy project and cost just a little over $20!  It only took the hubs about 30 minutes if you don't count the drying time!  We put them below her window right by her "reading nook" corner.


Materials Needed:
10' vinyl gutter
4 gutter brackets
2 left gutter end caps
2 right gutter end caps
8 wall anchor screws
measuring tape
pencil
level
drill
weld-on glue
pvc saw

1. measured and cut gutter in half with saw
2. put brackets on gutters
3. glued end caps on each gutter; let dry
4. measured and marked gutters where the brackets would go (we put them at 16" from the end caps)
5. leveled and centered gutter(s) on wall
6. marked the holes on the wall where the brackets would go
7. used wall anchors to mount the brackets and end caps
