In Search Of A Home For My Magazines!

I have so many magazines that I just cannot bear to recycle!  Yes, I know that I could tear out the pages that interest me and file them in binders!  Believe it or not, I've done that as well!  You should see the number of binders that I have that need a home!  I even have tearsheets in file carriers and pretty Hermes and Louis Vuitton boxes!  Now the ones in the boxes I'm okay with keeping them there because I use them as part of the decor!  I've selected some pics that I'm mulling over to see if any of them will inspire me to create a great storage/display solution for my precious magazine resources!  I'm getting antsy because since having had the family room painted, the magazines are hanging out in my living room and dining room, and it's driving me a little nuts!  I just really don't function well when things don't have a place!



I really like the idea of using a wallpaper, fabric, or accent color on the wall where shelving will go!  It adds instant interest and personality!


Adding lighting to the shelves is a really cool way of highlighting loved treasures and it creates a very nice mood in a dimly lit room.


Using shelving to frame a doorway is a wonderful idea and chances are it probably is a great way to utilize real estate that is not being used anyway!


Hmmm... I'm totally giving this idea some thought!  It keeps the newspapers off the floor, the sofa, the kitchen table...you get the picture!


This is probably my favorite because I like how the more narrow shelf in the middle breaks up the monotony of the wall of bookshelves.


This is another idea for the wall section I'm considering.  Using smaller bookshelves and then on the wall above featuring a composition of images.


While at the Scott Antiques Market a couple of weeks ago, I sourced a couple of cabinets like these that I would love to use, BUT they were too wide for the space!  I would have to have them custom made with a custom finish to get the exact size and look that I want!  Oy!

xoxo,
Rhonda
