Yarn Storage or Art?

Last year for Christmas my sister got me wine storage crates to display my yarn. They have been on the wall for a while, but she just recently asked how I attached them to the wall, and I thought this might be the best way to show her.
















Supplies included 6" L Brackets
Stud Solvers
Washers that are big enough to cover the hole in the L Brackets, but have holes small enough that the screw won't go thru.

See how the washer, L Bracket and screw go together. You have already put the back part of the stud solver in the wall, and the screw will screw into it.





















This shows how the L brackets attach to the wall. You want them to create a shelf for the box to rest on. Use two brackets per box. Be careful on the spacing as you don't want the diagonal dividers to be in the way. I also used some non-slip shelf paper between the bracket and box.
