I could see taking two pieces of wood, one on each side the bracket sandwiching the bracket between them, add a "trim" piece along their exposed edge (result of the bracket width) and stain them brown along with the shelf piece. Embellish with carved out designs using a router maybe. Suppose you could also do a more temporary similar solution using pink foamboard pieces, adhesive, heated foam cutter tool, latex primer and latex paint. Carve out the inner section of the side panels so you could fit the bracket inside for a more compact look. You could do the same using wood if you used a router.
