Am looking for ideas to extend the 'depth' of the window sills in my apartment--cannot even 'set' a Christmas candle on them! Would prefer ideas using 'wood'--metal just doesn't do it for me. Hope someone can HELP!!!

Hi! What about getting a book case just the height of your windows sill and building a windowsill that way. I found a great picture of this idea.

You can get a board the width of the window and depth you want. Paint or stain it to match the window. Screw it into the existing window sill. You will only have a few screw holes to fill in when, and if, you move.
To you as well...
I have marble sills so could not screw wood however I did make wood
shelves the depth I wanted and stained them then cut them just big enough to
"wedge" them into the side walls; Have one I wrapped in artificial grass my
cat fell in love with and watches everything from there.
They have lasted over 15 years now.

That is a stel of a deal. IF creative, you can make anything comfortable, attractive and inexpensive. Get working you have nothing to lose and EVERYTHING to gain
