A Daunting Task

Thanks to Marty at

"A Stroll Thru Life"

for hosting today's event!

I'm still working my Library/Music room, arranging

and rearranging the selves, a daunting task!

Here are a few goodies I found this week at

Hobby Lobby, 90% off, yes, yes!!

I'm not happy at all with the way this looks, seems if I don't have anything on the top of the bookshelves they look toooo sparse, and now it looks like clutter to me! So needless to say, this will be look much different next time you see it. No matter what your reading pleasure is you will be able to find it here!! The sea of yellow you are seeing are National Geographic from 1914 to about 1996. I tried to break them up to make it more visually pleasing. We have history, biographies, and good supply of romance novels!

So come on in, put your feet up and grab a

book and a glass of sweet and let me know

what you think! Have any suggestions?

Thanks for stopping by!!!!

Bye For Now

A Mantel

I'm joining Marty at

"A Stroll Thru Life"

for Table Top Tuesday. So be sure to drop by

and visit with everyone.

This is my very unused living room. For years

I have collected books, old musical instruments

in the hopes of one day getting to have my

library/music room. Well I think it is now coming

together. We have lived here four years and I have

gotten the last thirteen boxes of books unpacked. I have

two more shelves to be put in, a little trim and the

room will finally be the the way I envisioned it.

I know most people put shelves on both sides of the

fireplace, but there was no way two shelves would

hold all the books I have. So after allot of searching and

research, I decided to do an entire wall of bookshelves.

I hope to have everything finished and post soon. So onto the mantel. I wanted the whole room to

flow, so after days of placing, then taking away. Taking

photos, looking at my mistakes, this is what I settled

with.

Most of the books here are antiques.

I'm still not satisfied with this yet. I think it

might need something, I'm just not sure what.

Any suggestions?

One of my favorite pillows, The Meeting

Street Inn in Charleston.

Thanks for stopping by. Don't forget to let

me know what you think. I love comments

and suggestions. Now I have to get back to

putting books in shelves.

Bye For Now,
