Rusty Rave Monday - Black Battered Bookcase



As part of my family room redecorating, I finally got the bookcase painted and distressed...


...and got my dishes displayed.  I need opinions...What do ya think about the placement of the items on the top shelf and bottom shelf?


Look at the three pictures and please let me know which one looks the best.


I am also toying with the idea of adding the music sheets to the back of the first three shelf areas.  Might you have an opinion on that, as well?



Just FYI:  Here's the before green.


The process...


...and before the distressing...






  I would appreciate your thoughts!  Thank you and have a great day!

I like the third arrangement of your lovely white dishes etc. While I do like the use of the music paper, I think No because you have distressed your now black bookcase and adding the bright white papers will confuse that more "aged" look. I think it would look more like you were updating the aged piece rather that "aging" a piece.
