Cook Book Shelf

Hubby finished my new cook book shelf this afternoon. 
new shelf hubby built

The old shelf didn't really hold all of my cookbooks very well.  They were jammed in, to get them off the floor.

The old shelf was built especially for me.  It has my name and the year across the top curved piece.  My mother in law has one just like it, but, her's has her name on it.  Hubby's uncle Bill made them for us in 1996.  We are auditioning places to put the shelf, since it is too precious to store in the basement.

Thanks hubby for my new bookcase!

  2. Did you mark the box to notify you to follow ups? The book case looks so good! It fits the space much better and has enough space to hold them all. You will find a nook just meant for the other one I am sure.

  4. Hope this gets into your inbox - I checked the box but it didn't work for me 🙁. The bookcase looks perfect! You can even get a couple more books in there. Nice to have a handy hubby. ~Jeanne

  6. I adore your old shelf! It was built the year I got married! :) But having good space is important, too. I was just thinking today that I needed to re-arrange my cookbooks. Good reminder! :)

  7. Very nice! You have a very handy hubby. The new book shelf is perfect for that space and no doubt it's much easier to find a certain cook book.
