My husband and I are currently building a new beach house. This will likely be our main home once our two daughters are out of the house. When we looked at the house plans, I made it very clear that having bookshelves built around the fireplace was an absolute MUST HAVE! He could have anything he wanted in the way of kitchen stuff, I only had three things on my list: a walk-in closet with custom shelves (anyone see a pattern with me and shelving?), a pool (to relax and read by, of course), and bookshelves! We went to check on progress over the weekend, and while the house is about 3 weeks from completion, my shelves are up!! They are not finished yet, but I'm so excited about them. I can't wait to update my header photo, after I get them loaded up. 🙂
Hi Donna! This looks gorgeous! Bookshelves are always one of the most important things to me too 🙂 A total must-have! I know your house is going to be amazing!! xo Kristy
Thanks Kristy! I'm so looking forward to filling them up!
