I did manage to find the time to complete one project on my list (with the help of my hubby). One thing there is no shortage of in our new home is large, blank, gray walls, like this one in my little man's room...
While I knew that I wanted to fill this wall with something fun and colorful, I also knew that I wanted it to be functional. My son has the smallest bedroom in the house and every square inch needs to count. I've had this image saved in my inspiration file for quite sometime and I knew that a book wall was exactly what my little guy's room needed.
So I headed down to my local Ikea to and picked up 6 of these 45" Ribba Picture Ledges.
I then put my husband to work installing them in our Son's room. Here is what that blank gray wall looks like now...
I also decided to add some photographs and digital art prints along with the books to the shelves.
A little sneak peak of the stripes on the adjacent wall...
For $90.00 I was able to fill up and entire wall, while also creating a fun place for my son to store his books. I will rotate the books on the bottom shelf, since he can't reach the middle or top shelves yet.
BTW, can you tell what colors we are using in his room? I'll be posting more pictures of his room soon!
