Gutters on the wall

My husband rocks because.....

when I say I want to put rain gutters up on the wall, he said "Sure, sounds good."
It took 4 trips to the hardware store, but they are PERFECT and WONDERFUL and JUST what I had in mind.

Instead of this hot mess of books.....

....I have this beautiful forward facing book shelf so the kids can see the cover of the book they want to read.

It cost about $40 to make these two 5 foot long shelves out of gutter pieces.
I found the inspiration and instructions at Raising Olive's site.
