So this is what I was talking about yesterday - a non-functioning fireplace stuffed full of books. When I first saw this on Apartment Therapy a few months ago I thought it might just be perfect. At first I put a small chest in there stacked with some of Matt's coffee table books on ships from the 1800's and a giant shell but yesterday I decided to give the books a try. It could totally be seen as messy but I really like it and I think the stuffing turned out perfectly. I did it while Matt was at work but, thankfully, he loved it, too.
What do you think? Cute? A total mess? Or an abomination?
I think that looks pretty cool! You did a good job!
ReplyDeleteI love it!! god help you if you take a notion to read on of them - although it looks stuffed just enough that if you took on out the space would probably totally stay there! and I'm super happy to see your needlepoint in a nice prominent place!!
ReplyDeleteI was on the same wavelength as chris... and as beuatiful as the colors are, you put HARRY POTTER right where you won't be able to get to it?!?!?
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that I think it's way cute though.
ReplyDeletei think it looks cute - i give you an A+ on your stacking skills!
ReplyDeleteI think it looks good! What else would you do with a non-functioning fire place? I love it!
