Sauder Cottage Style Library with Doors Giveaway ARV $230!

This post may contain affiliate links. If you make a purchase through one of my links, I'll make a small commission at no additional cost to you. Thank you for your support!
Bookshelf with doors

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in life it’s this: you can never have enough storage space. Never!

Especially with multiple people living in a home. We all have so much “stuff” right?! And it all has to be stored.

So it’s my pleasure to introduce you to the Library With Doors from the Cottage Road Collection from Sauder.

With five shelves, this bookshelf is the place for your novels, picture frames, cookbooks, trinkets kids artwork and other memorabilia.

Hide all your DVD’s in the bottom two adjustable shelves so they are out of site!

The soft white finish with its lintel oak accents is timeless in its appeal looking stylish from now until forever.

So I hope it’s you who wins this amazing bookshelf from Sauder!

How to enter to WIN!

Simple fill out the SweepWidget Form at the end of this post!

The three top shelves are the perfect storage

Storage bliss with your new Library with Doors…

When I see five delightful empty shelves all I think of is storage potential.

Sure, the Sauder library with doors is the ideal spot for your tremendous collection of books. Even the kids get a shelf for their big and chunky books. But it’s also fun to display a few treasured pieces on the three top open shelves.

I used the very top of the shelf for a few of our neglected framed wedding photos. It’s also the place for a lightweight plant or two!

My fishbone cactus LOVES that top shelf where it receives bright, but indirect light all day long.

And let’s not forget about location. Will you use this library with doors in your family room, den or other living room? Or maybe you need and require more storage in your home office.

The library stands tall at 71 1/2″ but is also 29 1/4 wide. The shelves look and feel deep and can hold even your biggest books. Think cookbooks and music books. Perfect place for them to go!

The “skinny” on the cottage road bookshelf is that these dimensions are compact enough that you can squeeze this beauty of a bookshelf anywhere. This compact library would even fit in a bedroom or hallway.

Laying out all the parts for assembly

Getting the pieces in order with the library with doors….

Tom likes to lay out all the pieces of any assembly project on the floor before getting started. Not only does this help him confirm that all the parts are included but it helps him get the gist of how the project should unfold.

You can see for yourself. Tom + the instruction manual make a great team! Sauder instruction manuals are always perfectly detailed and I must say quite humorous. We get a chuckle out of them every time.

But it doesn’t distract from the clear-cut and great directions. Moreover, the diagrams detail easy to follow next steps for a foolproof assembly process.

All in all, it took Tom roughly three hours to assemble, but slow and steady wins the race. As I like to remind Tom (hopefully in my most pleasant and encouraging voice) there’s no rush. Better to get it right the first time than force a step.

So give yourself time to assemble. After all, that’s how we save so much money with Sauder. We DIYers are willing and able to put these beautiful pieces of furniture together ourselves.

Assembling the library with doors

Pretty makes perfect with Sauder!

It never ceases to amaze me that Sauder has so many options when it comes to style and finish.

The cottage road library with doors has three finishes, one with a patterned blue bottom that will blow your mind! So beautiful boasting a Moroccan vibe. A bookshelf that can take you on a vacation each day!

The cottage road library with doors also comes in the mystic oak finish. A brownish/grayish toned finish with rustic charm.

Sauder suits your style because all of the options they offer. I like choice and bet you do as well.

This piece from the Cottage Road collection is so chic. But Sauder proudly makes other library with doors in their Edge Water, Coral Cape, Harbor View, Heritage Hill, Palladia, Shoal Creek, and Dakota Pass Collections.

And don’t even get me started on their finishes, from white to black, browns, grays, whatever shade under the sun you desire your furniture in….you can get it at Sauder. In fact, 89 shades to choose from. How can you go wrong?

Speaking of collections, Sauder has 69 collections to choose from, different styles and finishes to match the decor in your home and even inspire you to try a new theme.

Two of my favorite are Boone Mountain and Manhattan Gate, as different as can be! One reflecting a rustic cottage vibe, the other the sophistication of the city. Both beautiful and unique in their own right.

But you have to discover what your style is with Sauder, so shopping using the style tab on their website makes sense.

Plants on bookshelves
Don’t you agree the doors boast a farmhouse shaker style sure to last the ages?

Don’t you love “hidden” storage?

Admit it. You love hidden storage too. There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that not all of our “stuff” needs to be in plain sight for all to see.

So I really appreciate the bottom two shelves of the Sauder Library with Doors. Behind those two beautifully framed panel doors are two adjustable shelves that accommodate books of any height.

I use the top shelf to house all my Thomas the Tank Engine DVD’s and the bottom shelf is for all those super tall and clunky dinosaur books.

I also put the cookbooks that I use weekly and stuff extra music books that don’t seem to fit anywhere else on this shelf.

Easy access is key. One shelf is 100% dedicated to my garden reference books. The books that I get at garage sales for a quarter but use as references to write my posts.

Those books are huge, heavy and don’t fit anywhere else in my home. Until now. Until the Sauder Library with Doors entered my life.

And you know exactly how it is: you’ll never read the book you can’t find! Location is everything.

Bookshelf with adjustable shelves.

Library with doors ~ style within your budget!

So I like style but I also like to keep that style within my budget.

Storage is essential but who can afford to pay thousands of dollars for a bookshelf? We certainly can’t and bet you can’t either.

Enter: Sauder. Serious chic style on a budget. Where else can you get a library with doors for $230 bucks? Nowhere else.

And I give Sauder big praise for their quick and efficient shipping. Each time we get a piece from them, I blink and there it is on my doorstep~ begging us to put it together!

Of course, we oblige and promptly get to work because we can’t wait to see the finished product.

Clean, white and bright, this library with doors is going to sleek up your indoor space this year and help you get organized.

A bookshelf that won’t break the bank and your monthly budget.

Like a breath of fresh air, spring is the time to get organized with Sauder! So I hope YOU win and so do they. Good luck all!!

    If Tom has his ear buds in, he can’t hear your encouragement. And when did the baby get so big? He’s too cute. I love the adjustable shelves.

    This is a really nice looking Library with Doors cabinet. It’s great that the shelves are adjustable and can handle heavy books. I’ve had other bookshelves that you assemble yourself, and they’ve had shelves that would bend under the weight of heavy books. The assembly time of three hours is good to know. That sounds comparable to the time I’ve spent putting similar cabinets together.
