Hey all!

I woke up this morning and thought to myself, god, i've got a ton of books all over the house. And so i decided to do a bookshelf. 2 hours of labour later, this was the result:

Books (note the whiff map of africa on the wall)



More books



Some photos of my bedroom:

Very nice, Thomas. Your carpentry skills are exceeded only by your modeling talent.

Thanks for the kind words :thumbsup:

I really have no idea if they are still available. I think they were bought in a Danish store called Idé møbler. Try looking for something similar in Ikea, that would be my safest bet.

This one comes close, if you choose white:
