Bookshelves

Here's a terrific way to create storage and a focal point using less than 12 inches of floor space. A wall of bookshelves stretches up to the ceiling and brackets a pair of French doors


Built-in bookcases have a sedate, cohesive look to them. These feature a cupboard unit underneath for storage of non-decorative items



Make good use of an awkward area by filling it with custom bookshelves. These span the area to the left of the fireplace, then turn the corner to fill an adjacent wall.



Yet another version of wrap-around shelving, these bookshelves have been arranged with books on the bottom and decorative items on the top, making for a somewhat heavy look



Infuse bookshelves with a touch of style by adding molding or other details. On these bookcases, one shelf has an arch detail that echoes the slightly arched doorway nearby. A wood display shelf cuts the look of the all-white cabinetry.



book collection on shelves stands behind the beds in this library guest room. Swing-arm lamps offer a reading light for all of the treasures waiting to be found in books.



Bookshelf units can be purchased in any of a variety of sizes, shapes, and styles. These feature blond wood and clean lines, perfect for this contemporary home office.



Here's a look that can sometimes be achieved using ready-made bookshelves. Fit them together along a wall, attaching each one securely to the others and to the wall. Trim out the top with molding to get a built-in look.



Here's a classic use of bookcases built to surround a fireplace. This look keeps a mantel from protruding so far into the room, making it appear as part of a detailed wall.

Shelving

Dressy Shelves
For a dressy look, cut sheer fabric in a half circle and hem the edge. Using a hot glue gun, attach small silk leaves (which can be found at any fabric store) to the hem of the skirt. Drape fabric over a sconce. To finish, repeat the leafy theme by attaching the same leaves to the branches and place in a vase on the shelf.







Stacking Shelves
If one shelf is nice, several can be wonderful! Use wood blocks or accessories from old cabinets and headboards, or any pieces lying about that you find architecturally appealing. Paint them white. Invert the painted pieces and attach shelf. To add interest, trim each shelf differently, using a hot glue gun to add lace edging, teardrop crystals, antique buttons, etc.







 


Picture Frame Shelf

To use picture frames to make shelves, first screw a thin strip of wood to the wall to create
a supporting ledge for the back of the glass shelf. The picture frames form the front support. To secure the frames, attach them at an angle from the wall by threading picture wire from the back of the frames to the eyebolts secured in the wall. Make sure the shelf is level, then secure the bottom of each from to the wall with drywall screws and begin to embellish.









 Glass Shelves
For glass shelves with a sea theme, use two architectural elements as the bottom glass support. Place glass shelf on top of supports. Two marble-filled jars make the upper shelf support.
