[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also just put up the Ikea besta system around our fireplace. 2 floor to ceiling units on either side of the fireplace with doors on the bottom cabinets and the top is open shelving. There is a shelf right above the fire place for the cable box/video game console and the tv is wall-mounted above. We put crown molding on the top to tie it all together. Looks like this: http://www.remodelaholic.com/2011/01/fireplace-remodel-with-built-in-book-shelves/

Cost approx $350 but I did all the labor - took me 2 nights

this is lovely!  If you don't mind - can I ask you a few questions - do you find that the 16" depth of the Besta works for most things you are storing in the cabinets?  Also - did you paint your Besta like in this example and if so have any reservations about the longevity of painting over the veneer?  I've been looking into the Besta as well and while I do want a white built-in, I don't like the white Besta because it is a foil finish which doesn't seem like it will withstand long term use and I don't think I'd ever paint over that.  The other color Besta options look like they are a wood veneer.  thanks![/quote]
