I love checking out the clearance section at Wayfare.com., you never know what you may find. This floating shelf was a steal, all hardware came with and was only about ten bucks.  It is real wood and looks fabulous on the wall. The outside box was a bit squashed when it arrived, however the shelf was in another box which had wrapping all around. There wasn't any damage to shelf at all. I love Wayfare.com and am always telling others of it's wonders.
