As so often it happens, when I pack away the Christmas decorations and see our home with fresh eyes again, I feel like a change.
This time, I dealt with our office.
We had two very old IKEA shelves in here, that had been repurposed over and over in different rooms in our house. At first they were in each of the kids' rooms, then on the landing in the old house and here they had been bookshelves/storage space in our office.
I got annoyed as one of them had become miscoloured, and also because they actually didn't hold much - I needed more space for more books..!
So, new plan - I got two nice and tall, very classic Billy bookshelves instead. Built them all by myself:
Even installed the LED lighting on top, with dimmer and everything! So proud of myself!
Now I have a LOT more space for new books!
The room itself has also become more spacious as these are slightly narrower than the previous shelves, which is good for the odd occasions we use it as an extra guest room.
The shelves are in the same wood as my desk, so it all looks really nice and put together in here now.
Very pleased.
