What happens here
Small wooden blocks are strategically inserted as wedges to create clamping pressure, ensuring a tight fit against the walls. The constructed floating shelves are then carefully installed into their designated positions on the stone veneer wall. Each shelf is pre-wired with small canless LED lights, and these lights are connected to the electrical wiring previously run through the wall. This provides integrated lighting for the shelves and an ambient glow. The power source for these lights is connected to a dedicated light switch.
Goal: Install custom floating shelves with integrated lighting.
