If there's one thing that makes a house look pretty and organized, it's those damn 'styled' bookcases that designers artfully arrange. According to those images, I own way too many books and in reality would need at least 10 bookcases to keep the adorable ratio of glassware, ceramic owls, and perfectly covered books of the exact same height. Is there a tutorial for those who have giant Anatomy textbooks their boyfriends won't throw away? Or one that actually shows something with *gasp*, BOOKS in them? Please...because I'm sick of putting together flimsy Walmart shelving units.
I have exactly 3 sets of books that look awesome and matching, and the rest are various thrift store or ancient college purchases. And because getting rid of a book is like cutting a friend out of your life forever, it takes a lot to decide which to actually part with. I don't have a solution for this problem, just a rant that is ending NOW.
