The Shelf

Back in October, while we were out in Washington, my Lutheran Stud and I visited our old stomping grounds. We had lunch at our favorite restaurant and then walked around marveling at how things had changed. We walked into Anthropologie and saw this shelf. I jokingly asked my Lutheran Stud if he could make me a shelf like that when we got back to Washington.

Just before Christmas this shelf was finished. Then there were a few coats of stain and the work of figuring out how and where to hang it.

This is the finished shelf. With the help of a few friends the shelf looks amazing! When you walk into our house this is the first thing that you see! It's perfect for this huge random wall in our home.

A little Pyrex adds a splash of color to the shelf don't you think?

Texas memories will never be forgotten thanks to Adriane.

Bookshelves definitely need books on them, so Kellee brought over some old Arch books.

For history we've been reading old Landmark books. They are the least politcal books out there, that we have been able to find. I love the color that they add to the shelf.

My Lutheran Stud truly knows how to work with studs!! He also built new beds for our older girls that are suspended from the ceiling. Now I'm trying to figure out what to have him build me next. :)
