Posted on the 07 January 2019 by Just For Clocks @JustForClocks

The shelfie game is gaining popularity in present context of interiors. With simple tricks you can actually take the level of your decoration from average to amazing! Dedicating my blog today on how to style your bookshelf taking queue from the amazing ideas narrated below.

Rather than jamming shelves full of knickknacks, one should opt for a minimalist look: Several books stand upright along with tall vases that fill the space without overcrowding it and looking rather classy. This kind of arrangement also symbolises quality over quantity.

Styling is about creating beauty. Hence beautify the placement of your books by keeping them horizontally and vertically. Mix it up in order to balance the weight of your shelf styling.

What I feel is that a few metallic objects will add that pop of bling and elevate your shelf styling. You can mix metals but just be sure to stick to all warm (e.g. gold, brass, copper or rose gold) or all cold (e.g. silver, nickel) metals.

We often forget that the book shelf can be the most interesting corner of the house as you can feature pieces you've collected on your travels, treasured family heirlooms or latest season collections to be the ideal conversation starting place.

You can always consider placing artwork towards the back of the shelf and layer smaller decorative items in front - using the depth of the shelf will create interest or you can place an interesting artwork in front of the shelf to create interest making it the focal point of your interior.

These are some of the best ideas that I feel will be apt while styling your bookshelf. You are always welcome to share your own innovative thoughts and approach while styling a bookshelf. Drop in your comments below and let me know your feedback on my blog.
