Bookcase Up-do

We have a bookcase in our living room, and I sorta despise it. I hate how it always looks like a cluttered mess. I'd love a fancy new one with the sliding glass doors, but my budget says NO! So I ran across a bit of inspiration in the Serena & Lilly catalog.
I love how all the books are covered to match, I've actually seen this done in a few catalogs, where they are covered to match the decor.
So I set out to give my bookcase a bit of an up-do: and this is what I have accomplished so far...a work in progress, so use your imagination I haven't made it to the bottom half.

Hopefully I'll get around to finishing the bottom part soon.

It does look better already! What about backing it with something? Like a different color or some pretty fabric? You could just staple it on and maybe back with cardboard or something so it stays put? I am doing that on a desk this weekend :) karly has requested zebra print :)
