The cookbook shelf in progress. |
The shelf will cover an entire wall and be made of ApplePly. I think it's going to look quite striking and because it extends all the way to the ceiling I actually think it makes the room feel larger.
Bill was the one who showed me ApplePly at the lumber store about a year ago and ever since I've had my heart set on using it in my kitchen. It's the best plywood you can buy - it's smooth and super strong. What I like best though is the clean striped effect on the sides of the boards. I'm not going to use any trim to cover it up. I'll just add a little butcher block oil and let the wood speak for itself.
The pretty edge of ApplePly. |
My dear friend.......I'm sure you will have a step stool of some sort so you can reach those cookbooks that will be near the ceiling!
ReplyDeleteI am thinking about having a separate binder for all of my recipes downloaded from Heidi's Mix blog....:)
