its a very nice shelf i must admit,such gleaming wood and the brackets are so decorative.

is it really my fault i own such a lovely shelf?

i bought and paid for it out of my own money and my dh lovingly fixed it up for me.

do any of you get shelf envy?

WideWebWitch · 22/08/2008 16:33

YABU, some people just don't have shelves so if you have you shouldn't flaunt imo.

chapstickchick · 22/08/2008 16:34

Did you work hard to earn the money to pay for it?

Floating (American walnut) would have been more envy inducing.

AMumInScotland · 22/08/2008 16:37

it is just so crass to show off about your shelves.

I bet they are ...... veneer !

Total renter

EyeballsintheSky · 22/08/2008 17:02

I know Chapstick

Bluebutterfly · 22/08/2008 17:03

I think communal shelving is the answer...

theinsider · 22/08/2008 17:03

I can't beleive you're still being crass enough to keep showing off about your shelf.

Why do you think we all need to know or care about your shelf?

Bluebutterfly · 22/08/2008 17:10

I would only be impressed by the size of your shelf if it was in a mews house in Chelsea...

(wtf?)

chapstickchick · 22/08/2008 17:59
