Books, Books, Books! | Bookshelves

I absolutely love the idea of bookshelves in a home. I love that it adds character and makes a space looked lived in. Besides Jeremy's text books (those really don't need to be displayed), we really don't have a lot of adult books. I usually read a book and then give it away. And let's not even try to remember the last book I read that didn't involve cookies and mice, hungry caterpillars, or pigeons driving busses. I LOVE the idea of having shallow shelves for front facing books. We have lots of picture books, and I just keep buying more, because really, those books can just be read over and over, and they really don't get old. (And if they do, you just hide them for a while.)

    I agree and like you I hid books once in a while to my kids to make it feel fresh again!

    *Sigh* our office has two large bookshelves flanking the filing cabinet and I just can never seem to style them right. These are some pretty inspiration picks, though.

    I love the first version which looks a bit like an aisle at a library! Beautiful <3
