Bookshelf Rearrange

Most people's front doors open to a pretty foyer with some sort of console table ready to organize this and that. Well, don't have a console table. I have a bookshelf that has been in my room since I was 17. This bookshelf was moved on over into the house right after I moved in and has sat in the same place, the bare wall that you see when you come in the house. It was cluttered and filled with things for me to get to later. This is pretty much the first thing people saw when they came through the front door:


Bad. Well, I finally got sick of it and so with a gift card in hand, I headed to Bed, Bath and Beyond. I got some nice containers and I went to work. About 30 minutes later, I had turned the sad little bookshelf into this:


It's not perfect, but it is better.


The green containers came from BB&B and the brown containers are from Target. Now that I have this done, I'm encouraged to tackle other problem areas. Loft, here I come!
