New Bookshelves

This past weekend, Kevin’s grandmother moved into a new living arrangement at the retirement facility. She had to downgrade a lot of her stuff and give away a lot. It was a very emotional time for Kevin, but we think she is very happy in her new diggs and we are happy for her. With her move, we adopted 2 bookshelves. I have been wanting some more shelves and storage around the house but was too cheap to go buy anything. Well these new shelves are FREAKIN AWESOME! They match the dining room furniture perfectly. I couldn’t wait to fill them full of things I have been sticking in random places for the past year. The photo albums under the end tables, the extra picture frames, the wine rack, etc. Here is a picture of the new setup. Let me know what you think!

Also to note, we got these really neat Norman Rockwell plates that are displayed on the second shelf on the right. We are proud to display them just like Grandmama did. 🙂

And yes, I know the light is off center…that is the next project!
