One idea for making brackets
 |
Took a piece of 3/4" poplar & routed the edges using two different bits.
Left: TR621 3/16” Carbide Beading Bit
Right: TR627 1/8” Carbide Roman Ogee Bit
|
 |
| Cut (rip) the routed board in halves. |
 |
| Slice (cross-cut) 1/4" pieces |
 |
| Put the two brackets together or use separately. Flip them around for different styles. |
 |
| Or layered - as Idske commented in a previous post. |
Or you can buy full size molding which comes in assorted profiles & slice them with a saw & miter box. Home Depot
 |
| The ones with a carved or embossed design can be sliced evenly in between the decorations to create a more sculptured or carved look. |
 |
| Here I sliced embossed Tiny Trim into brackets - the 1st 3 are from the same molding. The one on the far right looks more like a small shelf - maybe use it to hold a plant on the wall? |
