Bookshelves- I moved about two months ago, and my original plan had been to paint (to match the wall) the ugly, industrial, track shelves that I had taken down when I moved in, and fill them with books (so you can't tell that they are ugly industrial track shelves).

I figured that I would do this shortly after the move, but I have yet to start even painting them. I find that the problem is that the bookshelves are very permanent. Once I start painting them (the walls are different colors), and ESPECIALLY once I hang them, I won't be able to change my mind about where I want them: What if I end up not liking where I hanged them? What if there is a better way to lay out my room?

Also, once I put them up, I wouldn't even be able to take them down (if I don't like it) without a big hassle. Due to the damage they will cause to the walls, it would take a significant amount of work to spackle, sand, and re-paint the wall. So once they're up, they're up to stay. No take-backsies.

So, in the meantime, most of my storage space is filled with boxes of books...
