STYLING A BOOKCASE

Today at work, one of my tasks included filling a bookcase for a client, to finish off the room. Sounds much easier than it actually is. I mean, how do you style a bookshelf, artfully and tastefully? What do you fill it with, besides the obvious being books.

Three main points to keep in mind:

-Less is more
-Just because it's a bookcase doesn't mean you only have to use books. Get creative, with baskets, flowers, and art.
-Use statement pieces to out bring pops of color.

Here are some well styled bookcases to help you get inspired!

Group books by color.

Remember: Less is more. 

I posted the above picture because I love the black and white chevron wallpaper used in the bookshelf. I think it really makes a statement!

Bring on the color! 

Maybe this post will inspire you to rethink some of your bookshelves. 

Have a great Monday, and as always...
