Another Look at the Expedit

2010-01-21-expedit.jpg

Check out this outfitted Expedit! You know we love to see the Expedit in action.

 
 

We love to see the way folks arrange their shelves. We're loving the way this one is decked out - bins on the bottom to hold pillows, toys low and accessible, and frames up on top. Also, check out the back - it's wrapped with wrapping paper!

I see one of these in our future! I love the boxes on the middle row -- vintage paper suitcases would also look great.

I love the wrapping paper! Is it just stapled onto the back?

What a nice surprise to be browsing Ohdeedoh and there's your bookcase staring back at you :) Thank you!

Lizzykewl - I stuck it on using double-sided tape. If your bookcase doesn't sit flush against the wall I recommend that you stick the paper onto thick board first and then fix it to the bookcase so that your books don't get pushed into the paper and tear it. It hasn't happened to me yet but just in case...

So pretty. Looking at this makes me feel like I'm living in the future and the past all at once... love it.

We love the Expedit shelves. We have them in our daughter's closet (where they fit so perfectly they look built-in), her bedroom, and my home office.
