Soothe all your worries with decadent piles of books ♥

I don't know about you, but lately every time I turn on the news or flip through Facebook, I start feeling like this cat:
Worried kitty hiding in bookshelves
"I'll just stay here until Election Day, thank you."
Books are such a wonderful way to escape to another time and place... and I know a lot of you must agree, because our "Glamorous Home Library" board on Pinterest is getting more followers by the day. It seems that everyone loves a cozy study.

With that in mind, we got permission from our latest customer to snap a few quick photos of the blue bookcases... with books now!

The secret door works like a charm.

I love admiring other peoples' bookcases. This collector sorts most of her books by author, but the childrens' books have their own shelf which sorted according to the rainbow. 🌈

I know color-coding your books is absolutely scandalous in some circles, but it always made sense to me. I'm such a visual person that when I think of a book, I often think of the color of the binding before I remember the author's name.

Speaking of scandals, is the trim on this bookcase scandalously over-the-top?

And one more photo from this shoot, just because I love vignettes.
Vignette of bookcase, with a bunny, and lots of books.
I spy with my little eye the Puffin "In Bloom" collection.

If you're like me, and you find peace among stacks of books, and you'd like to have a glamorous home library of your very own, we can do that for you.
