Peg Berens Interior Design LLC Hello! The walls are actually covered in a bronze colored vinyl wallpaper by Warner. It's so soft and nice in person. And that charming cow painting was the clients' own collection. Sorry I can't help you there!

House Changers Where did you get the display shelves?

Peg Berens Interior Design LLC See all the previous discussions regarding these custom shelves.

Peg Berens Interior Design LLC Sorry, I can't help you here. This painting is from my clients' own collection and they acquire their art from all around the country. :(

Peg Berens Interior Design LLC Sorry, I do not. But just get some graph paper and play around with your wall width/height and see what you can come up with!

Peg Berens Interior Design LLC Please read the previous questions and answers. These were custom made. You can scale them to whatever wall you are working with.

Mary Ruiz Peg, my carpenter says he could duplicate it for about $2000. That was sticker shock in my opinion. Do you think that is reasonable? Also are those pieces two inches thick?

Peg Berens Interior Design LLC Well, Mary, that does seem a little on the high end but it depends on what is included in your carpenter's quote (paint/stain, installation, etc) and how long the shelves are. If the bid includes all of the above, then it is probably reasonable. If I remember correctly, these shelves are 2-1/2" thick.

Jill Alex You are so sweet. Thanks so much. The best to you, Jill

reneeclark Like the color

bepsf They're custom.

Peg Berens Interior Design LLC Yep, they were a custom design! If you have a carpenter, you can show them this picture and have something designed to fit your space. Also, both West Elm (www.westelm.com) and Design Within Reach (www.dwr.com) sell contemporary shelving. Good luck to you!

Annie Thornton Floating shelf systems have interior mounting hardware that enables them look like they are floating. It involves hollowing out a portion of the shelf and then having a mate affixed to the wall — almost like two puzzle pieces. I am sure that something very similar is done here.

movingin Thanks. I just love how these look and want to put some in my study.

Anne DeCocco Free standing shelving is sold everywhere from Walmart to Ikea to the fancy furniture stores. It works well when you can't put holes in the walls, but you need to be sure that's it's used safely. Falling bookshelves are a bummer. Floating shelving is also sold everywhere too--The Container Store is a nice source as well as Target and any home improvement big box store. But you have to secure it to the wall. Those "Command" hooks from 3M might be useful in some way to secure a very lightweight shelf--hmmmm, don't like that idea as it's sure to fall down. Is it possible to nail/screw some shelving into the walls, knowing that eventually you'll be patching and painting the holes when you leave? Keep a little of the paint color nearby, labeled and ready to use. Filling holes is not a big job.
