Hope you're all keeping well :)
I woke up bright and early this morning (9am is early when you're pregnant.... 😝) and decided that my bookshelf was looking a little, drab?
Ive always loved the look of colour coded bookshelves but figured I had far too many black books (all supernatural themed, weirdly) and not enough colourful ones to make it work... But I was wrong!
After piling them all up in order of colour I then relegated 75% of the black books to go up into the loft, along with a fair few white/cream books, a really bright red book and my only orange book. I was then left with a slow rainbow of colours, mostly dark but very noticeably showing the gradation of colour.... And I LOVE IT!
Relegating some of the books was necessary to make sure there was ample free space to complete the "zen" look and to be able to have the both lying horizontal as well as vertical.
After I shuffled them into just the right position, I put the Big Bang theory pop funko figures back into the mix along with my owl book ends that were a treasured gift and the result is below!
Of course, I couldn't mess with our solitary "guy shelf" - full of various walking dead graphic novels and the like, wrestling guides and, of course, Star Wars books.
So I had only the first three shelves to work with on my rainbow quest, the black books that made the cut are underneath "guy shelf".
I'm pretty darn proud of myself now, looking at my bookshelf is a renewed joy!
Now, to find a home in the loft for these babies..........
I can never bring myself to give away/sell books, so instead I have a mini-library gathering in the loft too!
