An identity thief may use your Social Security number to get a tax refund or a job. Contact the IRS if they send you a notice saying their records show: 1  you were paid by an employer you don't know. 2  more than one tax return was filed using your Social Security number.
A bookshelf should be at least 9 inches wide. Allow 11 inches for magazines. The length will be determined by the wall's size and the number of shelf supports that you can install. Generally 3/4-inch thick shelves should be supported every 32 inches with a bracket (the shelves can overhang the supports by 6 inches). You can buy ready-made shelves at home centers.
Saving money'' by using open shelving is a myth unless you use the ugly standards and brackets like a utility room. The sleek and pretty ''floating'' open shelves cost more than a standard wall cabinet. Not to mention that most wall mounted shelves cannot hold near the weight of a wall cabinet. Used them many times in projects where I made folks sign a waiver. They only really work if you store most of your stuff somewhere else.
