Organizing the Bookshelves

With the start of my unofficial New Year it's high time I get into the office and organize my bookshelves. Whether you are looking for bright pops of colors to keep you alert in the mid afternoon or a more monochromatic look there is something for everyone. The one rule I always follow when styling a clients (or my own..) bookshelves is to mix in other items. Take a stroll through your home and pull what you already own. Keep an eye out for small framed photos, colored vases, mementos from vacations or even that silly wooden giraffe you had no idea what to do with! Alternate these items with your fabric boxes and bins, it will help to break up the eye and creates a bit of motion in the room! See you all later, I am off to shop my house!

Find It - Calm Bedroom + Laser Cut Rug

I Love the clean look of this room I found over at Living Etc! It feels so restful and the white floors are quite refreshing. Add a laser cut rug like the one below from Brocade Home and you create just a bit of interest. 5 x 8 is $499. Check out the next post for more info on that amazing piece of wall decor. No need for a bed frame here!
