Hello!

I want to set up a few narrow simple shelves above our stove (just painted boards really).

I would prefer to mount these without visible brackets and I know there are special fittings for hidden mounting. (e.g., http://www.specialbeslag.se/konsoler/dolda-konsoler/konsol-4)

The problem is that the wall bends at 45 degrees in two places and the shelves need to follow the wall (the stove is in a corner), so quite a few mounting points will be needed and the special fittings are quite expensive.

I think there should be a simpler way to attach the shelves, as they won't be too deep?

My first idea was to screw those "Ikea screws" directly into the wall (connecting screw http://www.biltema.se/sv/Bygg/Fastelement/Ovrigt/Kopplingsskruv-10-st-862003), but the problem is that the wall is gypsum and OSB, and it needs to go into the OSB, so there's too little sticking out, but I think the basic idea holds, as I just want small "pins" sticking out from the wall.

Are there any alternative simple solutions?
 
Dowel of suitable length into the wall firmly and then out into the board almost the depth of the board. Glue optionally but it will be difficult to dismantle then. Cheap, simple, and probably good!
