Hand forged iron shelf brackets have endless possibilities! Attach the brackets over a window and the hooks will hold draped fabric for swag curtains. Or put a dowel rod through the hooks and you can hang valances and tiers. You can even place the brackets on both sides of a window to create a plant shelf, or you can make a shelf in the bathroom for towels and supplies. Brackets hold up to a 5 1/2" shelf (ask for a "one by six" if you go to the hardware store.) Size to fit your space! Shelf and dowel rod are not included.
