The Shelves are UP!!!!

Last night Brett put up 4 of the new floating bookshelves and I love them!! They look great...in our someday dream home I demand a whole wall in the living room or entry way to have at least 6 of these in a row...I love how they look so much!! The other two shelves will be hung up on the side of our fire place...I am excited about those too!!

One drawback though, well not so much a drawback just an unforeseen complication on my part. I ordered the large shelves, thinking the only difference is that they hold 20 pounds versus the medium holding 15 pounds. They also are different depths! The mediums are 8 inches and the larges are 10...so all of our usual hardbacks don't fit in the bottom slot right to cover the bookshelf, which is what gives it the floating look! So, two of our shelves are floating and two aren't! :)

This is one of the shelves without a big enough book on the bottom!





Don't judge on the state of our bedroom...we have a young child! :)
