Must Have - The Ikea Expedit

There are so many things you could do with this shelf.  It comes in many different sizes too.  I really love this idea (especially since I love chalkboard paint right now).  It may fit perfectly in my office with just 2 of the shelves.

I love the fabric they chose to put on this shelf.  It would look great with the white or light wood shelf I plan to buy.

This is just adorable.  What a great way to use the skinnier Expedit shelf.

A wall of Expedit's may look good in the office.  Not sure if I need that many though.

I love this idea.  I don't have many usable walls, so I could do this possibly on one unusable wall (because there is a vent on the floor that can't be blocked).

What a great idea!  They put scrapbook paper or wallpaper on the back of the shelf to add a detailed touch.  Very pretty!

This is one of my all time favorites.  I would love to have this room and all the supplies in it!!!

Love the white and the rainbow order.  :)

This works for me because I am sticking with whites, browns, and grays for the office.  Very pretty!

I'm not sure exactly what I will do yet with these shelves, but I hope it will be functional and cute!  Most of all, I just want our home office to be a comfortable place to work and do art projects.  I have been hinting around to my husband about building me some of these shelves.  He built me some already that I use for cubbies at the school.  He is ignoring me.  :)  Something will work out, but for me the nearest Ikea is 6 hours away.  I have already gotten 3 separate friends to buy things off of my Ikea list for me.  I will post pictures when I get the office layout finished.
