    Default Rain Gutter Book Shelves

    You can turn any corner of your home into a Reading Corner for your little ones.
    These "shelves" are actually vinyl rain-gutters, we paid $5.99
    for a 10 foot piece at Lowe's.
    My wonderful husband cut the 10-foot piece into 3 shelves and screwed them to the wall, the third one is going in my sewing corner.
    We will use the top shelf as our seasonal shelf and the bottom for Emily's favorite books.
