The aftermath.
My beautiful floating shelves apparently got fed up with carrying all of my cook books and did a nose dive. Boo!
We still aren't sure what to do with the space in the long term. Do we dare to do shelves again? For now, I shopped the house and pulled this little corner together.
It definitely holds all of the cook books (and a few other important items). I'm not loving the color it is in here so if it stays it will probably get a coat or two of paint.
I propped up our monthly calender (which I just realized needs to be changed to May) added my pompom flowers, piggy bank, and that cute bug tray for a key catch all.
Don't you love it? Cost plus is selling them right now for $1.99. I got all three styles but this one is my favorite.
What do you think? Is this a keeper? Or did you like the floating shelf better? Daniel want's the shelves back but I am skeptical we can make it work better this time.
Cheers!
Bummer about the shelves! That stinks! Maybe it would work with a different kind of shelf?
ReplyDeleteI was thinking wood would be a bit sturdier but I loved the look of the Plexi. Daniel thinks there is a way to reinforce it but I have my doubts :-p
