Bookshelf Spruce Up

An ordinary bookshelf can become extraordinary with a little love...

with wallpaper

or with paint...

or even fabric...

So once again bored and melting, I got crafty...

I have some black bookcases on either side of my TV

and anything I put in there just gets sucked into the black background,

 so prompted by my friend Amy (who tried it first)

I covered some cardboard with burlap fabric from Hobby Lobby

 and stapled it on (no time for glue) and....

The color makes the objects stand out rather than fade away

 and the texture is subtle, but I like it...

put a bookshelf spruce up in your back pocket...
