BOOKS!! and MORE BOOKS??

Today the Picasa file needed tidying, and there were some old pictures of our book collection... some from a former house and some from here. 

I love the "in transition" pictures of the shelves being built... by Darling Hubby. Shelves are IKEA cheap, reinforced, added to and finessed with moulding.



OLD LIBRARY SPACE


We created another room by making double shelves attached to ceiling and walls

Finished... and afternoon light plays over the shelves.




The new library (below) needs culling.There are way too many (CAN there be too many??) books; many are double shelved and I can't find things.
That shouldn't happen; even in disarray, we need to be able to find our reads!

  1. Be still my heart..I LOVE your bookshelves! ..and the solution you can up with, just like a library but way more intimate:) It's never too late to start clicking away on your keyboard and sharing the creative ideas you clearly have! Have a great weekend - Wendi

  2. I have always wanted a library and yours looks great. I love the table for your book club. What fun that must be! I have to show this to two of my sister's who both have huge book collections. Thanks for visiting and for your kind comment on the dresser I painted. Cream would be lovely. I actually painted a little dresser for my sewing room in Old White, a creamy white, and it is being temporarily used on hubby's side of the bed.
