Organization to rival the Dewey Decimal System

One of the best parts of my job is hearing excited customers anticipate the arrival of their orders.  The other day I spoke with a mom who was so pumped up about her purchase that her enthusiasm was contagious. She was buying two Library Carts, one for each of her sons.          She described how one would fit perfectly in the nursery. She thought the red would coordinate with his window treatments and bring the room together.  The espresso, for her older son, seemed more mature to her.  It would add a sophisticated element with his desk and new non-sports-themed sheets.

As you can imagine, my home is filled with Nod products. And, as luck would have it, I own, and love, our Library Cart.  I told her that I’d bought the espresso for my son’s room when he moved from his crib to his big boy bed.  I’d  realized that he couldn’t reach the bookshelves on the wall, and this seemed like a perfect solution.  It arrived while my husband, and resident handy man, was out of town.  I enlisted my 8 year old son to help me, and together we tackled the assembly project.  I was pleasantly surprised with the ease of putting it together.  We stood admiring our work and couldn’t wait to show my younger son his new bookcase.  A year later we still love the Library Cart.  My son chooses his bedtime story every night, and I am teaching him to put his books away!  We use Top Boxes underneath to house completed art projects and his beloved cars.

Our customer seemed relieved to hear that my 8 year old and I had no trouble putting it together.  I hope she and her sons enjoy theirs as much as we love ours.  I’m hoping to someday claim it because I see it as the perfect home for cookbooks in my kitchen.  Then again, maybe I’ll just have to treat myself to a second one.
