Judging a Room by its Covers

Not only am I going to need a library to house all my books someday but shelves on which to display my favorite covers.  A lot of time and effort goes into the cover art of books so why not display them as you would a painting. Chandelier Creative, above, even opens some of them up.  Now that is creative.

    Cookbooks on the kitchen counter tell me all I need to know about my client.

    Books in the library too, but not as much as the cookbook authors.

    I also need a library to house my 500+ books, and now you’ve given me further inspiration – love these displays!

    A lot of beauty in this post, not to mention a great solution to that awkward stack of books in the corner of my shelf! Hopefully it will inspire my kids : )
