While flipping through the October issue of Better Homes and Gardens I landed on this page (#177) and thought "My books need a home. I want that!" I immediately ripped the picture out and put it on the fridge (hence the wrinkles). Collin looked at it, said "We'll see" and that was that. 
5 months later he got to a point where he could start building. This is a picture from Friday night.
And here is a pic from yesterday. It actually took more time to caulk them than it did to build them. I love them. My books are just ITCHING to move in (after we evict those power tools and diet cokes).
When he paints the rest of the basement woodwork he is going to paint this white as well. I am so excited to have my own little library! He did a great job.
