This decorative shelf with a rod is by far our most popular nursery shelf! It is made of solid pine and its top is 10 inches deep. We have added 1.5" wide double-beaded trim which gives it so much charm, especially if you choose to have us distress it. There is ample room for hanging clothes with the dowel rod 6 inches from the wall. We have 4 lengths for you to choose from. The decorative brackets are dovetail fitted with hidden keyhole slots for easy hanging. All hardware and detailed installation instructions are included in your package. Our customers are using them in a variety of ways. To hang their baby's clothes. To hang clothes in their laundry room. And to display an heirloom family quilt.
