I am a reader, I have always loved books. It was one thing I really wanted to pass down to my son when he was born. I asked for people to give me baby books for my baby shower if they preferred as a gift instead.
Let me just say. He has A LOT of books.
I am also happy to report that he loves to read… or at least be read to.
Here is my cost friendly bookshelf hack.
1. Buy any color of paint you wish your shelf to be. If you like the light wood pine color, then you don’t even need to buy paint and can save yourself that money.
2. Go to your nearest IKEA and get the BEKVÄM Spice Rack or order online herefor only $3.99 each
3. Paint your shelve pieces and let dry.
4. Put together the spice rack
5. Mount on the wall and enjoy!
Due to all of his books, we now have ten racks, and they are FULL.
While this may not be ideal for an older child or teen with many books, this is perfect for those early toddlers and young child years.
Here is my end result for my son’s room.
Happy Savings!
