Red Bookshelves

I built some bookshelves for my little turd muffins room.

I was really really tired of all his books being in boxes. Can't really read them that way. Now I finally have somewhere to put 'em all. With TONS of room to grow!

Do you like????


I built three of them. I was gonna put them all on the wall behind the door. But after hanging them, I hated the way it looked. So I took them all down, and decided to put two behind the door, and one over by Ry's crib.

SO. MUCH. BETTER.


I am gonna put big letters that spell out "READ" above the two that are behind the door.

I designed, built, painted and installed these all by myself. Besides the few cuts in the width, that the stupid Home Depot guy messed up on, they turned out exactly how I hoped!

I'm so proud of me!!!

Here are a couple detail pictures.




And here are a few where you can see some more of his room.




And a peeky in Riley's room.


I'm getting so close to finished. Eeek! I can't wait to have it ALL done, so I can share!

Me and him both LOVE to be in there!!!

  1. The whole room is amazing! It is really hard to capture the cuteness of a room in a picture too, and it looks awesome in the pictures, so I know it would be totally amazing in person! Oh, and btw, I have been trying to talk Josh into making me those bookshelves for like 2 years! I'm so jealous!
