A Perfectly Styled Bookcase

It's been a tough week for me.  I have several projects in the works here, but came down with strep throat on Tuesday.  I haven't felt that bad in a long time.  I am on the mend and hopefully can get busy on the way too many few projects I have started.  

In the meantime, I wanted to showcase a perfectly styled bookcase.  It belongs to my lovely and talented sister-in-law.  She also happens to be an interior designer, hence the perfect style.  

I think styling a bookcase can be a bit daunting, especially a huge built-in like this one.  Not for her.  This kind of thing comes to her so naturally.  


Marti, my sister-in-law, has impeccable taste and is extremely creative. She has paired some of her great books with meaningful photographs and a few special accessories.


Here's a look at the entire thing.


I love the way she split the books between the two different sides of the bookcase.


Aren't her children adorable!


I also really like the way she added some natural elements to the space, like the plant and the roses.


Perfection!


Believe it or not, these pictures were taken just a few weeks after they moved into their new house.  She is on the ball!


You have until 12:00 EST on Friday, April 14th to enter the Stella and Dot giveaway.  Go here to enter.  I'll announce the winner on Friday afternoon.

  1. This is just what I needed...I plan to have book shelves built in the not too distant future around the fireplace and I love these. Have pinned it to Pinterest :-)
