How Do You Install A Tile Shelf In A Bathroom Shower?
Installing a tile shelf in a shower is an easy and decorative way to incorporate a practical and durable storage solution into your shower. Using the same tiles as you use for the walls, a simple tile cut will allow you to achieve professional looking results with a minimum of fuss. This project will allow you to have a place to store soap and shampoo without clutter. This project needs to be installed while tiling the shower. This project is best done if the shower is being tiled with 12-inch tiles. Cut as many tiles as the number of shelves you desire at either a diagonal across the center of the tile or arced out from the diagonal through the center. One tile per shelf is strong enough, though it may not seem so. The shelf’s stability comes from being sandwiched between the row of tile above and below. Tile the shower until you reach the height desired for your first shelf. Install the tile you intend to use for a shelf straight out from the corner, instead of flat against the wall
