Pots
Boxes
Plates
See how they are interspersed between the books.
See a few figurines, a basket (adds great texture) and some frames.Some books are standing open on the bottom.
Notice the different heights.
These shelves have a clock and a box with the books.
Here is a little collection of china on one shelf --- See the different heights and the odd numbers.
This shelf highlights a couple of matching pottery pieces along with some books.Frames
Little pot of flowers (natural element)
Wooden box
Put a few items that you LOVE along with the books and they will stand out-You will be showcasing those few pieces ---
and it will feel good to be surrounded with items that mean something to you.
You can display hardbound books with the dustcovers off and it gives your space a more
classic library feel.
Notice how the little pot of flowers really livens up the space!
It is also nice to add round elements to the mix --See how good the plates work.
When you have dark shelves it is good to place a few
light colored pieces ---
So remember . . . if you want to have a "COZY" Book Shelf
