Thanks motownmum. I really wish i could wait, however i desperatley need the storage i will get from the bookcases and couldn't live withe the flat packs layong around for 12mths. Also it will be much easier to paint them now, before the are assembled.

I think you're making great progress. CDR wanted you to put them all vertical because she thinks only professionals should style bookcases. We are/were all amateurs at one point, that doesn't mean we shouldn't decorate our own homes. You're getting there! Just keep studying the photos of bookshelves that you like and keep practicing. Just remember to keep the decorations simple. Look over the beautiful photo above from Maureen again, and you can see that some shelves are still all books, and there are only a few decorative pieces.

They are built to look like sideboards when hidden but they are actually work spaces, they can hold all of your office equipment and we have them in a range of different colours and styles, they free up space and reduce clutter. If you take a look at them on the link that we previously sent you, then call us on the number found on our website then we can give you some more advice. Many thanks, Style Our Home.

I'm going to be boring and say that my kitchen is my favourite room because my family spends time cooking together and eating at our cosy breakfast table in the corner. Besides that I'm also a big fan of our terrace and garden.
