Books and a vote

When I first saw our apartment, I wanted to rent it instantly based solely on one factor - built-in bookshelves. For me that was it. Seriously, I wanted to rent it before I even saw that there was a bedroom. For some reason because of the groovy ascetic I sort of assumed it was a studio. Quickly, I thought the bed could go under the bookshelves (long time readers this should come as no surprise).

Every once in a while I am haunted by the notion that one day we may move to a new apartment. I secretly plot to make my own shelves if we are forced to move somewhere without them. Readers, admit it the only thing better than built-in bookshelves would be the wonderful feeling of walking into them...if I could describe it in terms of childhood stories it would equal...







My bookshelf inspiration is from ill seen, ill said. Which brings me to the vote. ill seen, ill said makes me want to add some color to Freckle Rock... Ideas? I promise a gift to the best comment. Not quite as cool as this, but I swear I'll send you an awesome book.

  1. I think turquoise and heather gray would make a nice color combo. :)

  2. If the law thing doesn't work out I think it's safe to say your husband has a promising future in interior design, I can picture you surrounded by tailor made bookshelves built into a turquoise wall resting your head on a heather grey pillow - very serene.
    What is heather grey anyway - amazing, it sounds great.
