I still have a lot of blog catching up to do from the summer, but I just can’t get motivated when everything around me is turning all the beautiful colors of fall and the air just feels different, ya know. So I’ll do what I promised myself I wouldn’t and jump ahead to current blog time and share with you my fall bookcases.
Nothing fancy, and most of the stuff is a permanent fixture on my shelves year round, but I just took out the turquoise and yellow (my living room scheme) and added in my fall décor stuff.
The baskets on the bottom hold the baby’s toys, but I’m slowly moving that stuff out of my living room (finally). I still need to get 3 more baskets to finish off the other shelves, but I buy one a month just to keep the cost spread out.
I love this little orange owl, and had plans to spray paint him to match my living room color scheme, but now I know exactly where he belongs… with my fall stuff.
My favorite thing on my bookcases, our family picture. I love, love the frame. Now I just need to take an updated picture.
And that’s it. I’m really late getting my fall stuff out and poor Halloween will suffer because of it. Thanks for being so patient with me… I have SO, SO, SO many pictures to edit, it makes me mental, crazy, postal… you get it. Slowly but surely I will get back on track and hopefully inspire you with something creative.
ETA: Since I know I will probably get asked, and I’m not very good at getting back to people and their questions, the back of my bookcases are covered with wallpaper. It’s a white almost puffy dimensional paper that I picked up from Home-Depot.
Why hello lovely, Miss your updates! Maybe it's time for a phone call or something drastic. :)
