Here a Shelf, There a Shelf

Well, I didn't have to wait long for another bookshelf project.  When my Aunt Dot saw Lee Ann's bookshelf upgrade, she immediately called to remind me that she had a WHOLE wall of new shelves.  Since today was a school holiday, I promised her I would come take a look. It was such a pretty space - with a new challenge.  There were many bookshelves but not many books since Dot is an avid reader of iBooks.  I walked from room to room hoping to find items that could be relocated to her wall of shelves, and I was not disappointed.  Her extensive collections of white pitchers and miniature chairs were just the inspiration I needed.  An hour later we were admiring the new arrangement.


As I was driving home, thinking to myself that bookshelf projects don't last nearly long enough, my phone rang.  It was my son, Will, calling to say, "Get ready for a new project."  He is possibly losing a housemate in the near future and will need to downsize to a smaller house or apartment.  House and apartment-hunting are among my favorite hobbies.  Let the search begin!
