Urban Girl Tip: Decorating with books
Last weekend, my mom and were joking about how it has become so trendy to have stacks of books lying around as an interior decor feature. Since my family has always been very bookish, we’ve been way ahead of the curve on this one. At least my parents have floor to ceiling bookcases in two rooms to control the chaos.
The stacks have reached an almost epic level in my apartment. Stuck with one tiny bookshelf left over from college, I have two piles of books in the bedroom, five (!) piles in the living room and one brand new pile in the hallway next to the plaster bust. There are probably more books outside the bookcase than they actually are inside the bookcase.
According to Domino Magazine, this is tres chic. However, I am not super convinced that this looks trendy instead of “nutty professor.” It may be time to upgrade our bookshelf!
