Bookshelves

Centsational Girl

I have been spending a lot of time lately looking at apartment design and interior design lately and one thing that fascinates me is bookshelves and how beautiful they can look. Rather than keep them in the house as just a place to store books they can so simply be transformed into beautiful pieces of interactive art!

Considering I'm going to be moving soon and won't have much storage space one of the few things that I know I'm going to have to do to incorporate both style and functionality is decorate by bookshelf. So now it's just about figuring out how I want to do that. For example, I think the above which has wall paper along the back looks amazing and really brings great color and graphic to a room.

I love the letter figure and little matching blue figurines here.
