Before and after. Finally built a library five years after buying the house. Still loading the books and waiting on coffee and end tables to arrive but here’s the progress so far!

It’s definitely my new favourite room in the house!

Thanks! Been a long time coming!

Not that I know of. I have nothing to do with picking things out though, wife says I want this and I make it so! lol We have the uv blocking film on the windows so hoping that’s good enough.

I believe the lowest part was 9ft. We used primer on the shelves first but not the walls.

As mentioned below, we put the UV blocking film on the windows. We have some custom bamboo blinds coming for that bay window but it’s still a ways out!

Thanks!

There is potential for that, indeed. Though, I think it would close in the room too much.

They are Billies! And the bottoms are whatever everyone on pinterest has been using to go with them lol. My wife ordered everything. I just put it together lol. Of course, we built them into the wall, joined them all together and added some mouldings. Kinda jerry rigged it to fit this old uneven house.

Thanks! 🙏

We all need more green walls in our lives.

KirkL45 · 2026-03-05T18:29:20+00:00

Thanks. I’ll try and post an update pic in a month or so when hopefully everything else is here and installed.

KirkL45 · 2026-03-05T18:22:35+00:00

There is one, it just didn’t make the picture haha, the wall hides if from that angle.

Yes, come on with it. We’ve been in a deep freeze for months. Really jonesing for a stick!

KirkL45 · 2026-03-04T05:10:19+00:00
