My Rainbow Library
We have a spare bedroom at the new place that has been made into the library/office. I've organized the books by the color of their spine. Some people think this is nonsense, but it actually really works for me. When I'm looking for a given book, I have a much easier time remembering its appearance, than, say, the author's last name. Also, it's gorgeous. I did it at my last place, too. The exciting new changes are that I've done it in ROY G BIV fashion (after black and white), and there are no shelves with work stuff or photo albums intermixed - only books, books, books.

Love it, Liz! Especially the stylish aligator watering can on top of one bookshelf. I can't wait to see them in person... soon.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you love the alligator - but can you spot the dragon?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Did I tell you I attempted to do this with my DVD collection? Most DVD covers are definitely not as artfully designed as bookcovers. Can;t wait to see your new place too! How are the greyhounds adjusting to the move?
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the DVD collection! You should send me a picture or post it somewhere. The greyhounds seem to love the new place; they have tons of room to run around.
ReplyDeleteCan YOU spot the dragon, Connie?
Hmm, does an apple with antlers count?
ReplyDeleteOh, wait! I can click on the image to make it larger, duh! Definitely spotted the dragon now. :)
ReplyDeleteSorry I didn't respond sooner, but nope, Liz, I can't spot the dragon. Where is it? Or do I have to drive up there to see?
