I'm a big Pinterest fan. Visuals often inspire blog posts,
and this one illustrates that fact. I've been seeing pins about decorating with
books - everything from traditional libraries to Christmas trees made from
books.
Here are a few pictures of my book nook. I love the way the volumes express my interests. :)
This room is decorated in soft yellows with varying shades
of blue. The books add a pop of color to keep the room from looking too
matchy-matchy.
I found the needlepoint footstool in an Amish Country antique shop. The colors were perfect for the space.
The sunny location partially inspired the color
scheme. I also saw a bedroom in Better Homes and Gardens with blue and yellow and
thought it would be perfect for my home.
Writers and Readers:
Do you have a writing/reading nook? Do you use books to decorate in
unusual ways? Please share.
P.S. I'm not a photographer, so please excuse the amateurish pictures.

I love your book nook Susan, I just want to collapse in that chair and read.... We have a whole wall in our house covered with books, but I do have a to-read-pile on a little table where I usually sit to read.
Hi Marja - Thanks! I love books, and enjoy seeing them arranged on shelves.
