Here is the before (almost) of our built in bookshelf in our living room. It has been this way for the 7 years we have lived here. Only I have added more stuff because I don't know where else to put it. This corner of our living room always feels dark and junkie to me.
So...I decided to lighten it up a little bit. I used scrapbook paper to line the back of the bookshelf.
Then I weeded out the stuff I don't love and packed it away for another day...perhaps another house! I rearranged and spruced things up.
And voila!!
I am quite pleased with myself.
