First lot of pics for the photo meme

velvetwhip asked for a photo of my bookcase...

It's an 8ft x 6ft hardwood (don't ask me to remember exactly what type of hardwood lol) bookcase that my lovely husband made for me. It's currently in a state of disarray and sorting it out is actually on my to do list now that school has started back. It wasn't easy to photograph as the 'room' it is in is actually just the foyer and is too small for me to get back far enough to fit the whole thing in, so I took a few shots from different angles.



Click for full size, but be warned they are very big!

LOL I think by the time we factor in the airfares it would work out much cheaper to buy one from a furniture shop...also, they wouldn't take anywhere near as long to make it.

I love it, my only very small complaint with it is that he needs to add a third shelf support in the middle (at the side) of each shelf because the supports are only 10mm wide and at the very outer edges of the shelves, so if you bump the shelf it falls off the support and you end up wearing a hardwood shelf complete with books. (I found this out the hard way and it hurt!)
