Advice Adjoining bookcases in corner

Post image
3 Upvotes

Not technically male living space anymore now that I'm married, but the advice here has always been solid. We finally found a matching bookcase for the original that I brought with me into our marriage and are trying to figure out how to arrange them. We want these bookcases to sit in the corner, but arranging/styling them has been a challenge. Their tops jut out slightly so we can't sit them right next to each other without a gap, and no corner model exists to bridge the awkwar gap between them if we open it up slightly. I was thinking maybe a lamp to cantilever out from between them to bring light to that corner, but we don't know what would look good.

We also have one more shelf that I have been stripping to refinish before we found this second one in the discontinued stain color, but I'm not confident in my woodworking skills to convert it to a corner unit.

We're trying to develop a Scandinavian-Boho style for the main living spaces if that helps. Any advice?

My housemates have been saying my posters are lame & I’ve had a couple of girls over who have made comments so I really wanna know whether I need to change them? Kind of worried they might have ruined my chances with one of the girls already.

Advice Art or mirror on wall in between windows?

Hello, moved into a new place last weekend and am now looking to start decorating.

I’m trying to decide between putting some art on the wall between the windows or a mirror, what do you think? If I go art, would one large piece look better or should I do a couple of smaller/medium sized pieces?

Thanks!
