Don't let this Valentine's go by with out loving your home just a little bit more!



share some love with your blah bookshelves don t let this valentine s go by with, home decor, shelving ideas, I was really getting tired of the way my bookshelves were looking Here s one side of my unit OK nothing exciting actually kinda boring It needs changing So here we go



share some love with your blah bookshelves don t let this valentine s go by with, home decor, shelving ideas, First step was to clean off the shelves and remove the adjustable ones to give more room to work I went to Lowe s and looked around I found this great prepasted paper with a Spanish tiled look to it I was so excited to get started I neglected to REALLY follow the directions I guess there are directions for a reason The first section I eyeballed the measurements as you can tell it was a little short ugh Knowing I am not a perfectionist no Martha s here I let it go plus I know I am going to cover it



share some love with your blah bookshelves don t let this valentine s go by with, home decor, shelving ideas, YIKES I really didn t measure correctly here I went looking for my straight blade and of course it was no where to be found My 12 year old son aka McGyver has done something with all of my tools I eventually found a dull blade and went to cut the edges Here s a hint use a sharp one it makes for better cutting
