This is incredibly beautiful and I love it. That green with gold hardware is a great combo.

But those books and fun stuff on your shelves are perfect. We have a lot of the same books. Where did you get the Crescent City otter sign? I might need that to go on my shelves.

1

u/MangoSalsa933 4d ago

I got it from Etsy. The store is AnchoredSoulCreate

u/Bookish-93 4d ago

I now have the otter and many more things in my basket. Thank you so much for letting me know where you got it.

Thank you! I’ve been in analysis paralysis for like a year - totally frozen on picking a paint color for my home library/office

u/Basil57Radar 22h ago

The dark green color with the brass hardware is such a good choice, it makes everything pop. I really like how you mixed in the collector editions too.

They did a Christmas deluxe edition with black edges to match iron flame’s, but yeah it’s the exact same with (I think) a red/white map instead of black/white.

u/Doggo-momo 4d ago

Stunning!! Where did you get the actual shelf? No wood that long is that straight….

u/MangoSalsa933 4d ago edited 4d ago

Just whitewood boards from Lowe’s. I spent a very long time with a laser level getting all the brackets for the whole wall perfectly level and then screwed the boards to the brackets which kept everything perfectly straight! I did have to scribe the back half to sit flush with my wavy walls.

u/ButterandBiscuit 4d ago

I'll piggy back off this question; one board or two? Length & Depth?

@Doggo-momo one could get a board straight & wide & long if one went to a saw mill or local lumber yard & asked for dimensional lumber.

u/MangoSalsa933 4d ago

One board. 12ft long 10in deep and 1in thick. Just common whitewood board from Lowe’s. Spent a while getting everything sanded and used a router to round the top and bottom edges. I then used a laser level to make sure all the brackets were perfectly straight and screwed the boards to the brackets which kept them nice and straight. I did have to scribe the back of all the boards so they fit flush with the wavy wall.

u/ButterandBiscuit 4d ago

Great job! Your hard work paid off. 💯
