I forgot to take photos of the bookshelves themselves… we have one of the four units cut and stained. I start assembling later this week.
We still have no heat in the living room, so I need to up the ante. Gotta build that fireplace area and then the husband can fit everything else in. Whew. Winter is fast approaching!
In case you’re wondering, that’s Livvy’s bear on the counter. The bear is LIvvy’s “playmate.” She can play kinda rough, though. We took a video of her with Teddy a few years ago.

:) I’m a married mom of four teenage children. We live in Upstate New York. We bought an old 1855 home and acre property, over 10 years ago. We've been in the slow, agonizing process of living in the home while (trying) to renovate it. When I'm not renovating, I'm a freelance writer and blogger.
We've learned to dig a French drain, plant huge flower and vegetable gardens, wire a circuit panel, install furnace ducting, understand the enigmatic complexities of the plumbing system, and more. It's been *quite* the adventure.
You can read more about us here, read up on the history of the home, and read about what we've renovated so far. Thanks for visiting!

Are the book case shelves inside? Livvy is certainly a good fighter with that little bear. Our cats do not go after our stuffed animals. They just knock them over if they are blocking their path.

Hi, Karen. The bookcases are going to go on top of the cabinets you see. They will reach all the way to the ceiling, so they will be enormous! Still, I don’t think they will be enough to store all my books! I have a lot of them.
