Sometimes I make these gigantic lofty plans that are a little well... #craycray. Like my whole plot to build an entertainment wall. What the hey. The amount I would spend on tools in order to just cut up the wood would be more of an investment then it would be worth. At this point if I go to sell my house I will be lucky to break even. Therefore if I buy anything it needs to be new home eventually friendly.
Big ass wall unit. Not move friendly.
Dumb idea.
Luckily I have new idea!
I stole this idea from Sam @ The Junk House. Mostly because she's a lovely bloggy friend. And it looks good in her house.
(Hi Sam! I stole your photo! hehe)
See how lovely that looks?? I think I want to get the model that has the larger bookcases on the sides (English major= loads of books and crap)
What do you think? Should I save for this IKEA beauty or still try the build it your own self tactic?
GAH! I need a new couch and rug ASAP. That "progess" picture is kind of pitiful.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, just buy the IKEA entertainment center! I originally planned to build an entertainment center too, but it made more sense just to buy one. Just make sure you measure your wall first. I was planning to buy the bigger bookcases too, but they didn't fit on my wall :( The whole thing looks a lot smaller in the store. I don't know how big your wall is, but just a heads up. Plus if the bigger bookcases don't fit on your wall, the smaller ones are $30 less/each. Anyway, I think it'll look sooo good in your living room.
