Post Display question-Floating Shelves
Anyone know a place (other than Ikea, we've looked) that has basic (non-decorative) "floating wall shelves" we basically want to run a ledge around the perimeter of our ceiling for toys. No filligree, or brackets, just like a ledge that we can hang around the top of the room. Thanks!

I've seen some plain, non-decorative floating shelves at both Lowe's and Home Depot that typically come in black, white or wood grain. They were the bracketless type that just take two anchored screws in the back. Might be worth a look.

Yes you can find them at Home Depot. They are called "Manhattan Shelves," come in either black or white, and cost about 15 bucks a shelf.

They are identical to the ones used by S7 along the back of the store. Just check out some of the pics from past toy shows there to see how they look.

I've also spotted them at the container store.
