Hallway Addition

For a while now, I've been wanting to add a small bookcase in the hallway that leads from our entry way into the living room. I've had some decorative wall panels hanging on the walls in that area, but needed to fill the space underneath. I had several pictures that I wanted to put out, but running out of display room. Plus I wanted to have another place to set out decorations for the various holidays through the year. My handyman husband kindly put this bookcase together for me on Saturday. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out and it really helps fill this space. I might add a few more things here and there, but for now here are some before and after pictures... The black and white picture of John and I, on the top right shelf, was a gift to me from John for our anniversary back in February (read about it here). It's a picture that I've been waiting to put out because it needed a home and now it finally has one! The black and white salt and pepper shakers on the same shelf are representative of John and me. They can actually be explained by watching the movie "Fireproof" (read about that about here).

Here's a clip from the movie that will help explain it a little more...

Until we meet again...
