Ever since we started looking at homes in our neighborhood and saw the built-in bookcase below we knew we wanted to do the same thing in our upstairs oversized loft/hallway.


We priced one contractor right after moving in and decided to wait. We priced another one about a month ago and realized we still needed to wait, but were getting desperate to have shelves and "finish off" that area. So, today we got this:



We plan to paint the wall behind a striking color since you can see through the cubes and figure in a year or so we can put baskets in the bottom rows for baby's toys! At only $199, it's great for right now. You mount it to the wall. We also got three spotlights to go across the top which look great.

Of course, we hadn't been to IKEA forever and had fun looking at other stuff too, like closet organizers, shoe racks, and all general nesting equipment! I think the nesting stage is beginning! See here for more ideas soon!
