Should It Stay or Should It Go?

July 3rd, 2007

What do you think? Should our big bookshelf stay or be stored? We really like the piece of furniture, but it feels a bit overwhelming in our main room. In theory, there should be enough room for the piece, but because the wall sticks out a few inches we cannot put the shelf completely in the corner. So it can’t be centered in front of the table and we can’t move the table to be centered on the shelf because it sticks out too far. Also, we cannot put an end table or anything on the side of our couch because of the shelf. On the other hand, it is really, really hard to take apart and even harder to put back together in addition to being really handy with the holding of books. So should we keep it up or should we store it for future use? Your vote counts!
