Our Money's Worth

We definitely feel we have gotten our money's worth out of our floating shelves.  We thought we did pretty well when we spent $40 on seven shelves, but Ryan kept going.  He had one last piece of door left.  He used it to make a long matching shelf on the other accent wall in our basement.  The shelves we had up there before were left by the previous homeowner and not really our first choice of shelves.

Ryan took those shelves down and installed them in my sweat shop.

They work for what I need them for and I plan on painting them this spring.

The new shelf is cleaner, more streamlined and matches the other shelves we made.  We're quite happy with the results.

The only thing we aren't happy with is the new shelf is making us rethink what we need to make the wall look cohesive.  The picture on that wall just doesn't seem to work anymore.  I guess that's a project for another day.
