Vertical Oak Slat Wall Mount with Floating Box Ledge Step-by-Step Guide Constructing a vertical oak slat unit brings strong linear lines to plain bathroom walls while offering compact storage. Arrange four narrow oak timber slats vertically, securing them together using two horizontal rear brace bars spaced eighteen inches apart. Attach a hollow wooden box shelf onto the front face of the oak slats, anchoring it firmly through the backboard with countersunk wood screws. Sand the unit thoroughly before applying a rich walnut stain followed by a moisture-resistant topcoat. Mount the assembled unit adjacent to a bathroom mirror using concealed keyhole hangers on the rear brace. The hollow box shelf functions as a dedicated holder for folded washcloths and facial creams, while the top ledge accommodates a small woven basket for hair tools.
