Bookshelves make a home... they bring warmth, wisdom, love, and colour into the room. With bookshelves comes openness, connection and community. We don't have enough bookshelves in our home - so I've been scouring for idea's. Here's just some that I'm excited about.
What can I say, some of these examples just make you want to read, some make me want to write, and some just make me want to sit. I think that's what I'm looking for at home, and haven't quite got.
There are some hurdles to get over when it comes to choosing bookshelves - like
- size of the house and rooms
- style of the house
- built in or fee standing
- white or light coloured, timber, or dark colours
- do i have to redecorate the whole room
- can i afford it?
I found an interesting article highlighting
