Love Your Space Challenge: Jan 3rd
How is 2015 starting for you? I hope you are still enjoying a few more days of holiday before hitting the daily grind in the new year.
Today’s challenge is for our bookcases again! I just love decorating with books and I think bookshelves are easily overlooked when it comes to styling and displaying books, art, and other decorating accessories.
You can read how I added wrapping paper to the back of my bookcase here. A simple DIY is simply to use double sided sticky tape to attach precut pieces of fabric or paper.
I’ve also added yellow fabric for a pop of color.
My friend Britt found a shower curtain on clearance that she lined two bookcases with. Isn’t the pattern pretty?
You can read more about bookcase styling and how to decorate with books here and here.
