well versed (continued)

OK, so I'm just now getting around to posting a few pics of the built-in bookcase I have in my family room. Here's what I've done so far.


Now, I probably shouldn't do this, but I'll go ahead and give you the scoop on what I've purchased to fill the unit and where I've gotten things. All the books you see here came from D.I. At 2 bucks a pop, I'd say they're quite the deal. I've gone 2 or 3 times now to hunt for books that look old, have unique spines, etc.

blue & white vase, $10, Down East; hat boxes, $10, iKea; picture frames, ?, Bombay Company

framed bird prints, $23, The Emporium; wooden box, $9, Ross

WOW! That's a lot of cheap stuff!
