Beautiful! I want to make a built-in shelving on top of my daughter's desk, and I came to the same idea of using these shorter Billy bookcases to do that. But since the bookcases will hold some books, I am a bit anxious. I am trying to figure out how exactly I should secure them to the wall to make sure they don't fall. How did you do it?

I love the idea of using a paint brush to smear on the paint and then a roller to roll the paint out evenly. AWESOME!!! The cabinet work looks great, you did a very good job, I love it. ❤❤❤

Hi Deborah! Love you desk bookshelf creation! I would love to know which Ikea cabinet and drawers you used for the bottom! Thank you

Hi I love this and would like to try can you list the ikea items please?

Hi, this looks really great - I love what you have done. I am looking to build a similar setup for my home office, using 2 of the Platsa cabinets you have used with a 2.2m worktop, which will be fairly heavy (approx 22kg). I’d love to recreate what you have done but obviously want to avoid it collapsing under its own weight, do you think the Platsa units would be strong enough to support the worktop on their own? Many thanks in advance!

Hi Deborah, this is truly stunning....I love it and you should feel so proud of what you have achieved in your beautiful room. Like you, I can't wait to see you decorate it over Christmas, it will look amazing. I prefer the new choice of colour too! Deborah as I'm about to paint my kitchen, can I ask what colour your kitchen cupboards are please? XX
