I made this mantel for our family room so the Shrimp would have a place to hang her garland for Christmas. It was actually a really easy build because I used a Kreg plunge-cut track saw + track saw guide. This combo makes perfectly straight knife-clean cuts in plywood with no tear-out, so making this mitered box was a breeze! I'll be using the saw much more this winter when I build a custom primary closet for the Shrimp! Tap the link in bio for everything I used to build this mantel. Now, who should be in charhe of decorating our new mantel? Me or the Magnificent 🦐?? Lemme know in the comments! #diy #diyhome #mantel #diymantel #diyhomeimprovement #diyhomeproject #holiday #Christmas #christmascountdown
