I don't know of any specific plans, but one thing you might want to
consider is a glass or acrylic door/cover over the front of the shelf.
SWMBO doesn't like dusting, and has informed me that it might be nice
to eventually have bookshelves with some kind of covers, as this would
decrease dusting time. OK, sure - after the bed, the coffee table, the
blanket chest, the rocking chair...
Just something to think about.
Good luck,
Andy
Here's a website with a picture that's similar to what I started with and
still love:
http://www.frenchenvy.com/
Here's a site that has suggestions that may be of help:

Why not do a Google search? Type in rubber+stamp+storage and see what you
come up with. Your daughter may want to help with this. I'm assuming she
makes greeting cards with her rubber stamps. You may need extra space
because she'll want it before long for all those rubber stamps she can't
pass up. LOL. She may even want to think about using an un-mounted system
which would save her a lot of room. Here is a site that will show you what
I have been using the last couple years:

Good luck and I hope she enjoys this craft as much as I do.

Shelves are pretty much a flat board. Some are a series of flat boards one
atop the other with space between. What do you want to know or what special
requirements do you have?

I'm still puzzled by pogues (or however they are called).

Rubber stamps? Odd thing to collect. I live very near Cleveland...
home of the Free Stamp... the world's largest rubber stamp. Maybe it
would interest her. I've seen it up close and it's a wonder to
behold...

Yeah, since posting that I did a little looking around. I suppose I
was thinking in terms of "DUPLICATE"... "PAID"... "VOID"... "AIR MAIL"
etc. That's why it seemed odd to me. Decorative craft type stampers
didn't occur to me.

Take a walk through a craft store. Rubber stamps are a big thing lately. Not
only factory made ones but carving them.
