DIY rain gutter bookshelves

http://littlegreennotebook.blogspot.com/2009/11/rain-gutter-bookshelves.html

I was amazed at how simple this was to make.  My husband is not a DIY person and bleeds putting up curtain rods but this was so simple for him to do.  Just for $5.  You can buy 10ft long rain gutter purchased at Home Depot or Lowes.  Buy a few anchor pieces show in picture and a set of end pieces.  Drill holes to screw the anchor pieces on after you slide it spaced evenly to balance your shelves.  There you're done.  If you ever need to redecorate or move just unscrew and fill up the little tiny holes.  If you like to paint it in any color you want that takes more time.  Great way to display books and kids can see the titles and encourages them to want to read.  This is also great for displaying other items as well.
