D and I LOVE reclaimed wood. Like, L.O.V.E the stuff big-time. If I could, I would have as many pieces as possible in our home made from the stuff. But it can be pricy unless you salvage the wood and build the item yourself. Well, here is where I had another lightbulb moment! I’m the daughter of a carpenter and I’m sure SOME of his master skills rubbed off on me. We shall see…
I’m starting with Reclaimed Wood Shelves for our office and seeing where I can go from there. We have a blank wall space behind my desk as seen here:
Looking at this photo makes me cringe. I am so excited for you all to see the final project once it is finished (it’s taking me a little longer then expected).

One: Not Just Your Housewife: Floating Reclaimed Wood Shelves w/Drawer
Two: Ana White: Industrial Chic Reclaimed Wood Shelves
Three:Design Sponge: Floating Wood Reclaimed Turned Modern Shelves
Four: A Well Traveled Woman: Rustic Reclaimed Wood Shelves
Five: That Village House: Reclaimed Wood Pocket Shelves

I love the reclaimed wood look – shelving, ceilings, floors, walls. You cannot go overboard with it, but you can do pops of it throughout a home. Thanks for sharing!
I completely agree with you Renee! I think little bits here and there totally make the look
