Bookshelf Tour


I've decided to jump on the bookshelf theme at TAT's home tour. This room has 12 foot ceilings and even though it's only 10x10.5, I'd love to put tall, tall bookcases all around the room and have one of those sliding ladders - a girl can dream can't she? The armoire houses the computer, printer, files and a fold-away chair that slides under the keyboard tray.

I know I need something on the wall above the armoire, but I'm not quite sure what to put there.

The piano which some dear child took a paper clip to. I tell myself, "It's only a piano and someday this will be funny."
We've got bookshelves (much smaller ones) scattered through the house: two in our bedroom, and two more in the kids' rooms, and a few shelves in the storage room hold the ones we don't use as often. In Ellie's room we use a cute white-washed metal tub to hold her picture books right next to her bed. We cannot get enough books in this house. How about you?
