Good Bye Rainbow Books
The paperback books used to be stacked and colour coded. It looked pretty, but I couldn't find a darn thing!
This is better.
One row of sci-fi fantasy adventure favorites (Asimov, Anthony, Brooks, Clarke, Card, Fiest, Lawhead, Leguin...Goodkind and Starwars stuffed in on the second row), two rows of fiction with a few non fiction, graphic novels on the bottom shelf.
ps. The top shelf is bowing. I may have to do something different with the travel books that are up there.

ooh i had no idea cleaning before the chinese new year...I'll take it. I too cleaned out every drawer, closet & armoir in my bedroom this weekend. felt good!
ReplyDeletePhew! Must feel SO good to have everything sorted. I'm envious. I need to adopt this tradition too.
ReplyDeleteit's amazing!!
ReplyDeletealthough I need to do on top of the tallboy and the milk glass..how did omit those spots?
and I couldn't locate my cardigan this morning...for all the good a clean house did me! (it was on the chair in the office!)
I went through the phase of organizing books and movies by spine colours and that drove my husband and eventually myself nuts. It was a lot of inconvience for the look. I am using a professional for my basement office/game room built-in (yep that same area). I am having base cabinets, desk and a banquette installed along the wall, and maybe upper open shelves for books and display. Just an idea.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, these photos make me want to take a big deep breath. I love order. And now that I know that about cleaning before Chinese New Year, there will be no stopping me. :)
ReplyDeletePS If you ever feel like finding a good, loving home for the brass and glass or the fixture in the first photo, I'm your girl...
I recently did the same thing! Though I organized mine straight alphabetically, versus by genre. It looks great! (yours, I mean :)
