Uncluttered Shelving

Maximize your space and create clean lines by uncluttering your bookshelves. Stacking books one on top of the other, as opposed to lining them upright next to each other, creates easy-on-the-eye little bundles.
Group books in relevant stacks; like colour, book size or topic.  Stick with stacks of 5-7 depending on the thickness of the books.
To add some interest to your shelves place some statues, bowls, vases or ornate wooden boxes inbetween your stacks.
It's a lot easier to access your books once they are uncluttered, your shelving is looks alot bigger and tidier. You will relish in the results. 




To make the contents of your shelving pop a little more, consider painting the inside of your shelving unit in a contrastiing colour. This has an amazing effect - your shelving unit will appear deeper and bigger.
