I got my bookshelf

ForensicmomI got my bookshelf
I asked for lots of advice on filling this spot next to my fireplace and got many great ideas. I found this leaning bookshelf in the exact same wood as the mantle and the rest of the living room. I decided to give it a try and hubby and I both love it. I just decorated it yesterday. What do you think? Oh, excuse the Raven's blanket and towel. My daughter put it up and insisted we keep it up until they lose a game, which hasn't happened since she put it up.

ForensicmomToo Funny. We're bigtime Raven's fans and it's been so much fun. I'm not sure what I'm going to do when the season is over b/c I can't stand anymore Disney Channel. That's the reason I started watching sports in the first place!

WWandaIt looks great there.
But do me a favor would ya, take down that Ravens blanket. Being a huge Pats fan, I can't bear to look at it.
