general TV stand

I got this entertainment center at Ikea yesterday. It was cheap, and it looks awesome.

I’m especially pleased with how I filled the awkwardly sized shelves in the center. Behind the starry fabric on top is my center channel speaker, which is ugly no more, and the silk irises are a placeholder until I acquire the other two seasons of Buffy, which will fill the space nicely. The daffodils are just for pretty.

It replaces two pieces of furniture I was sick of and that didn’t fit my needs anyway: my dad’s old stereo cabinet, which I estimate to be 25 years old and which is now next to the dumpster (sorry, Dad), and an Ikea TV stand I’m hoping to find a good home for.

It looks like this:

Here it is with a DVD on it so you can see the size.

Here’s the back.

It’s really very nice, too nice to put in the dumpster (again, sorry, Dad). Anyone in the DC/Baltimore metropolitan area who wants this can have it. Email me.
