I had two problems. First, I was suffering from a storage shortage for all of my craft stuff. (Hard to believe I have a lot of craft stuff, right?) Second, I had a big blank wall in my bedroom and was drawing a big blank on what to do with it.
One fateful Friday (last week), I was perusing my Ikea wish list, and looking at the
EXPEDIT 4x4 bookcase. Que light bulb and
ding! sound effect. I have wanted one of these for a long time, but didn't have a specific place or use for one. Now I had both.
I measured wall and it was just the right size for this bookcase. Add a few
KASSETT magazine boxes for organization and I was set.
I hadn't even considered using this wall for storage since it is part of the bedroom part of the room, not the "mom cave" part of the room. But it was so perfect. The next afternoon, I dragged my family down to Ikea for a shopping trip.
Here it is in my room.
I'm still organizing, and have plans to get more magazine boxes over time, but I have no doubt that every single shelf will be filled.

Love that shelf - I need one in every room.
Haha! Yep, it is a great shelf. :) One of the best things for me is that the shelves are just over 15" deep, so it makes a perfect storage spot for my 15" wide vinyl collection, which tripled yesterday!
I love that shelf! It is awesome!
