Review on Saturday : Bookshelf from CSN Furniture!

Remember awhile back when I said I'd be receiving a bookshelf to review? Well it arrived, a good bit ago..eek! My camera sucks, and was on the fritz with uploading so it took me a little while to get these pictures up and running here!

This first picture is of how it arrived at my house. It arrived on a really really nasty day, the poor delivery guy was soaking wet, but nothing inside my package got ruined so obviously they did a good job! Oh yeah, my fiance was holding it up while I took the pic...so there's his hand up top...and his foot at the bottom, lol. If you click on the pic it will take you to the product page for this specific model.



My sister took this pic, yeah, she was standing on the messy table..and those are her feets. She has a fascination with taking pics of feet...trust me, I had to go through all of the pics taken that day and there was easily 10 feet shots.

Luckily, there weren't many pieces to deal with, because my fiance told me it was MY job to put it together. I gawked at him..he usually does this kind of stuff for me! I'm a ditz when it comes to this stuff! I figured it out though...


See! This next pic shows my finished product. It only took me about a half hour to put this bad boy together, while my fiance sat back and took goofy pics of me, which I refuse to show to the blogging world despite his demands, lol.
Since there was no room in my room for ANOTHER bookshelf..this one resides in my sisters room. The first 2 shelves are for her TBR pile, most of which are actually my books..that she has swiped, lol. The last 2 shelves are for review books. Yes, there are a lot! This pic was also taken awhile back..so this bookshelf is actually a lot more full then it was then (her shelves and mine!)

Overall I'm really pleased with the outcome. It fits a lot of books, thankfully, and it holds up pretty well. If I happen to go out and buy another bookshelf in the future, I may have to contact CSN Furniture for my next purchase!

You always get such great bookshelves, I'm jealous, lol. Are they reasonably priced for those of us not reviewing like you do? I am in dire need of at least one more, maybe two! :)

Shauna - This one wasn't too badly priced. It was about $50 (actually a lil under) after shipping. You could probably get one cheaper at walmart though, to tell you the truth, and they have an extra shelf.

They are made the same way too, which makes them easy to put together.
