Ever since we replaced our giant entertainment center with a low console, I've wanted another solution to display my 12" scrapbooks. They are too big for conventional bookcases, but I really wanted them out in our living room where the kids or visitors could easily pull them out and look through them.
Greg actually came up with the idea of putting the scrapbooks in my glass case. At first I resisted (it seemed odd to have them behind glass doors), but if they fit it would be a fairly easy solution, and there was enough available room to grow into (since I have another 10 or so albums in process right now).
The biggest problem was adjusting the shelves in the case. Greg wasn't home, and it really takes two people to screw the shelf holders in. Not only that, but unless you remove the glass doors you have to reach around both of them - REALLY something I couldn't do on my own!
Luckily Spencer loves fitting into small spaces. I handed him my screwdriver and closed the doors on him, and then went to the other side to hold the screw in place.
He loved it, and it was very helpful to me, too! I told him he's the cutest thing I've ever displayed in there. (:
