This topic was originally posted in the "HELP" Lounge. Lots of great suggestions, so we moved it over here.

We're looking for creative suggestions for making this UGLY shelving unit look nicer in our new "Lion's Studio Video & Art Workshop." 

This shelving unit will have art supplies loaded on it (not shown in the photo), but it's a giant ugly thing. The rest of the walls have posters, stars, drawing board, and a video screen. Our sign outside the door features "Aslan" the lion, as does one of the posters inside the room (not shown).  Our other walls look pretty good, but this shelving unit .

I've thought of the old "vines and baskets along the top" suggestion, but that's not exactly in keeping with the A-V - Art theme we are working with.

Thought of covering two or three openings in the unit with framed Artwork -hiding the shelves behind them. The individual shelves are removable/adjustable.  

Thanks for whatever suggestions you have!
