This is simply the best! I love how creative and colorful this bookcase is. You can tell they put a lot time and effort into getting this just right with matching the knick knacks with the colors of the books.
The minute I saw this picture I had to post it. This is so cool. You can tell they are Pokémon fans that's for sure. And I love the visual of the color coordinated books but I wrote about how this wouldn't work for me. I have too many books and it would make it hard to find all the books in a series.
I know many articles and posts have been written about Carrie Bradshaw's wardrobe and her magnificent closet but can we talk about her bookcase.
Sex and the City
On the TV series her bookcase was one of the most impressive and eye catching items in her apartment. Although she mostly filled it with magazines, there is easily enough space to store a large number of books. Watching the series, I noticed she stored a great number of books around her apartment such as in the small alcove off her kitchen and in various spots in her living room and bedroom.
My bookcase is a bit packed at the moment, sorry Marie Kondo, my books are the one category I didn't declutter. With that said, I'm trying to reorganize my bookcase and I've been finding a little bit of inspiration from watching videos on YouTube. I will be posting a few from time to time.
First up is this video I found by Theodore Leaf, Chef, Beauty and Entertainment/Lifestyle expert and Glamour magazine Beauty Editor-at-large. He's also one of the co-host of Logo's Secret Guide to Fabulous TV series.

I think his method of stacking books by color and horizontal is great but I don't think it would work for me. Mainly because I have a boat load of books. However, it did give me the idea as a way to perhaps showcase some of my favorite Art and Photography books.
I absolutely love this bookcase and if I had nearly $700 to burn, I would so buy this. I like it because it so different from the traditional bookcase. Why do all the cute stuff cost so much?
