More Shelves! An Office Makeover

It’s been done for a week or two but I wanted to clean up a few details before posting the final photos. They’re all available on flickr but here’s my favorite showing the walls o’ books along with the two-computer desk corner. (Click on the photo for the whole set.)

Home Office wall o' books

Total cost about $750 and an uncountable number of hours over about a dozen weekends.

Update

I submitted this project to Lifehacker and they’ve blogged it!

To answer some additional questions that have been raised as a result:

  • The $750 total did include hiring someone to mount the brackets on the wall to make sure they were all straight and sturdy.
  • All the shelves, brackets, and rails were bought @ Lowes but Home Depot has similar products, just a different brand.
  • The surge protector in one photo is a Belkin BZ111200-06 11-Outlet Conceal Surge Protector
