How to Hang a Level Shelf in 60 Seconds

How To In 60 Seconds
Alure’s DIY expert Douglas Cornwell gives us a lesson in how to hang a level shelf.
Supplies you’ll need:
– Level
– Pencil
1. Grab the level and put it up to the wall.
– Hint: Make sure the wall is level
2. Take a pencil and draw a very faint line.
– Hint: Don’t press too hard so you don’t indent the sheetrock and so that you can easily erase it.
3. Mark your spots for the molly or screws & then hang your shelf.
Once done, you will have a level shelf!
Remember, the key to this is not to worry about the shelf, worry about what your hanging the shelf on.
