Bookshelf Design
I must have books on my mind because that is what I try to catch up on while on vacation. Lately, I’ve been getting audiobooks through audible because I can listen while doing other things but I have hard copies to read. So what to do with them once I return? We have so many books that I make my husband take any that he’s never going to use again down to the used books thrift store, every time he buys new books. Storage is a commodity where we live.
Here are some wild and wacky bookshelf storage solutions, if I ever want to redesign.
And when we truly run out of room, just expand.
Radiohead (again), Jigsaw Falling into Place, seems to make sense for this post and Kick-Starting the weekend. I like this song but I had to laugh when I saw the video as it made “trying to hold a book on your head” operate on a whole other level.
On another note, I cannot believe I have a 22 year old son! Piers, my oldest son just celebrated a birthday. I remember when he was a 6 week early preemie coming into this world amid a lot of surrounding complications. He’s proved that it all works out eventually.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
