Regency-etagere

I was a bit worried the shelves might feel flimsy, but the wood is actually quite sturdy and solid. The open design makes my living room feel much bigger and really shows off my decorative pieces nicely.

The open shelving makes it so easy to style my paperbacks and a few ceramic pieces without it looking cluttered. Putting it together took me most of an afternoon, but the result was worth it.

Assembly took me about an hour and the shelves sit level, which I appreciated after wrestling with a wobbly old bookcase. The etagere holds my hardcovers and a few ceramic pieces without any bowing. Wish the back panel were a touch thicker, but it looks solid in the corner of my living room.
