The shelves are not done being arranged. I am going to be making some more changes in my living room, and I will definitely be re-arranging the things on the shelves -- I don't like the placement of things now, but I haven't had a lot of time to play around with it. Arranging things on bookshelves is one of my favorite hobbies. Nerd!
