Have spent most of my day off tidying my books up - no more are they on their sides or crammed in - I even have growth space! The only books not in the shelves are the TBR, two piles in the third photo.I did pick up this book at the library today (and am wondering if there'd be a market for K to write a companion volume - Living with a librarian)
Hope I'll get some tips...
Fantastic! Love the fact that your books are like decorations. I would love to walk around in your apartment and look at all the wonderful books.
ReplyDeleteDid you actually count all of your books or did you already know you had that many?
ReplyDeleteWow! Everything in it's place at last! All of my books are in boxes and that makes me sad. I am yet to see them in their splendour - one day I will settle down and buy bookshelves, and that will be a happy day!
ReplyDeleteThey look great!
ReplyDeleteWhat a load of lovely books, and good use of space as well.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see I am not the only person in the world who has a small telly in their living space!
Does the dolls house (just visible in one photo) also contain books?
ReplyDeleteYour bookshelves look a lot tidier than mine, living in a small bungalow, most of the shelves have had to be double stacked as we have nowhere to put any more shelves. I think the books must act as another layer of insulation.
Looks gorgeously neat & tidy - well done you :)
ReplyDeleteThat is an unbelievable amount of books and yet you still manage to make your place look quite neat - I'm very impressed!
ReplyDeleteThat bookcase works really well on the wall leading into the kitchen, Verity!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I don't have much space for all my books so unfortunately most are in boxes. I could have more space but the kids would just pull them down and make a mess of them. One day I wish to have shelves like yours.
ReplyDeletehurrai and you've space for more books... Enjoy admiring your newly re organised book shelves.
ReplyDeleteIt looks really good! It also shows me that I am definitely not crazy with "just" 500 books in the house. Hah, now, to convince my boyfriend we could do with a few more bookshelves :P
ReplyDeleteDear everyone, thank you very much for the kind remarks. I have also bought a revolving bookcase which I hope will arrive next week so I am spoilt for book space!!
ReplyDeleteI am very jealous and impressed by all your book shelves! Currently trying to persuade husband that we need another one!
