Open Office has become a bit of a dead end after Oracle took Novell over. Based on the same code (software) is Libre Office, which has taken over the momentum of Open Office and developed the software further. It's a nice improvement over the OO basis.

It has to be the centrepiece of the room. Don't cover it up or hide it - it's beautiful. Use it as a coffee table.

I love that lounge (third image) - the television is brilliant.

The tension rod idea, of course, is a good idea, but if you are looking for other ideas:

Something like a Dignitet, if you are allowed to drill holes, with your fabric of choice.

Alternatively, if you are feeling creative, what about a couple of long pictures, possibly framed and mounted onto a hook or two for each, attached to a shelf? Or just hung from the top (double-sided tape across the top and down the sides to attached to the shelves). Come up with your own designs and be creative :)

Yes, remember to seal the shelves or make sure that you don't use a paint that sticks to paper. Anything that gets slightly soft when it warms up will be a disaster. Trust me on this one - I speak from personal experience.

No more painted shelves for me for this reason.
