DIFFICULTY RATING: (1 out of 5 - Beginner)

There are a number of ways to secure a curio shelf to a wall. Installation methods may vary but should not affect the degree of difficulty.
Step 3: Find the studs and mark the drill points
If installing into the wall studs, use a stud finder to locate the studs behind the drywall, or visually locate the studs using the nail heads in the drywall. Determine how many anchor points will be needed to mount the shelf. Use a spirit level to align the shelf, and mark the location where the bracket mounting screws will drive through the wall.
Mark the location where the screws will go through the wall.
