{Inspiration} Decorate Your Bookshelf

I believe everything has it’s place and everything can look beautifully decorated including a bookshelf.  I’ve seen so many times bookshelves that are full with books that are in disarray and junky… it doesn’t need to be this way.  I’m currently reorganizing my own bookshelf and was looking for inspiration… I do need to purchase a few objects to disperse I’m realizing. 

A bookcase can be used to not only to house your favorite reads, but another opportunity for styling.

Here are some tips:

• change it up a bit, change the stacking direction, some horizontal, some vertical
• keep the size dimensions in the same piles, or largest to smallest
• display your favorite finds, art, photos etc inbetween to add visual interest
• paint or add wallpaper to the back of the bookshelf
• organize smaller objects/papers/nick nacks in decorative boxes
