I actually kind of like them but maybe just spray them a fun color and paint the brackets white to blend more? Or if you truly don't like them, what if you used the Ikea Expidit bookshelves? They would look super cute on that wall. I would rock a big sunburst mirror up there. They're so trendy right now but fun and cute and would reflect even MORE light than is in that awesome room of yours!! <3Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03701650725472355399noreply@blogger.com
