Books………….
They not just for reading anymore!
My English teacher from 8th grade, Mrs. Gordon will be rolling over in her grave……..’books not just for reading!’ I loved Mrs. Gordon she had a way of making reading and writing exciting! As fun as it was and is, I didn’t choose a career in literature. still you will be hard pressed not to enter a room in my house or my showroom that isn’t sporting books! Besides enjoying a good read, I have found books to add so much to any space. Here’s just a few ways you can use books to boost your space!
· Use books to give your accessories a lift. Lamp too short? Stack a few books under it.· Create movement throughout your bookcase with by stacking books to opposite sides and occasionally in the center.
· Highlight some of your favorite novels in a grouping on a table or chest
· Fill a lower shelf with a few books
· Use an easel to highlight a special book ……… in your kitchen for example keep your favorite cookbook on display!


·
Coffee tables, many find these to be one of the hardest pieces to accessorize……..take the pressure off and stack your favorite ‘coffee table’ books
· Allow the books various different bindings create their own patterns and designs.
Start reading, or at the very least start collecting books. Not only will your mind benefit……but so will your home! Now where did I put those reading glasses?……………..
