Bookshelf Love <3

I love me some bookshelf pictures. Have you seen Bookshelf Porn??? It is epic.

First of all I will show you my bookshelves which are arranged alphabetically by author. This is the only way I know how to find the books on the shelves or else it would be endless searching for, and probably forgetting books that I own. This year I have tried to read all of my books in alphabetical order, because at the beginning of the year I could not decide what I wanted to read. I’m on the letter C now, and it is August. I feel like I read a lot, but perhaps not, also I have a ton of books, and I make bi-weekly trips to Half Price Books with the intention of selling, and not buying, but always walk out with an arm load. LOL

These are my book shelves that house my books, and my Alice in Wonderland memorabilia collection

This is Wade’s book shelf. I have told you he isn’t a reader, most of his shelf is filled with Warhammer 40k models

and almost all of his books are about Warhammer 40k

As you can see, I love books! I need more shelves, but I don’t have the room. Below are some of the best book shelves I have seen on Bookshelf Porn, Google, and Pinterest. Swoon ❤

I love weirdly shaped book shelves. I can’t mount heavy things on the walls of my apartment, or I would totally go the non=tradition shelf route.

I love the use of space they are using under the stairs. Our only stairs are outside, so this wouldn’t work for us.

HOW AWESOME IS THIS SHELF?!? I don’t know how pracital it would for someone with so many books though

I actually tried to make this when we lived in our own house instead of an apartment out of used fence posts. Turns out I have no skills whatsoever using tools, even though I took woodshop for 1/2 a semester in junior high. LOL

I think this shelve is awesome, but I think I would get frustrated trying to organize it.

The color coded shelves are my FAVORITE! I just don’t know how they find their books this way. Plus some series have different color spines, like my Harry Potter books, and they would be seperated. Love it, but I could never do it.

How cool is this shelf. This would be the only reason to own a mansion, so you could have bad ass library rooms.

I love the idea of floating book shelves, but again I don’t find it practical.

People have awesome houses. I love my apartment, but I am uber jealy of the shelves people have in their homes.

Color coordinated, and a unusual shape. ❤

More color coding. I wish I could handle doing this.

Seriously, how do they find anything?? It reminds me of the law bookshelves in offices, that are really just for show. No one reads those. Is this the same?

What about you guys??? How do you organize your shelves? Authors, titles, genres, colors? Let me know!! and if you do it by color, please tell me how you find books without searching for hours!!
