Ikea Billy Bookcases made to look custom, Hinsdale, Illinois
This is a great photo to show you the changes in a stock bookcase. The difference in a custom bookshelf and a stock bookshelf is the width of the frames. Custom shelves are 2" and stock ones are 1". So by adding a molding to the unit you can achieve the custom look. In this picture there are four Ikea Billy bookcases. The owner added the molding,painted the back of the cases to create a very custom and finished look to the room.There are prints that are hanging on to the molding. Another feature would be to add bookcase lights for an indirect evening lighting to the room. Have you ever thought of painting the back of your bookcases? You need to be certain that you will keep a "staged" look on the shelves when you are done.
