If you have floating and/or visible shelves in glass cabinetry, did you make the shelves the same thickness as the rest of the shelves in your closed cabinetry? Or did you go thicker than the standard? Do floating shelves need to be thicker than standard? Our floating shelves actually are not on their own, but run into cabinetry on either side of the shelves.

Also, did you make your shelving real wood or mdf, and why?
