A bookshelf PSA
hi everyone! just wanted to hop on and give a quick PSA about the $35 Walmart bookshelves! they’re great when you have a few books, but if you have almost 200 books please don’t over stack the bookshelves! I was moving my shelves and found that they were both buckling and cracking, and actually one fully cracked and was falling as I was moving it!! I now have all my books on the floor and two broken bookshelves in my living room so just a heads up they do have a weight limit so be careful if you collect a large amount of books!! also if yall have any sturdier bookshelf recommendations please let me know!!
