I think you should paint a few to look like stubby pencils for your home schooling room. Just one more project that shows us that good ideas can be simple ideas too.

They aren’t really my style- but they’re totally giving me some ideas. At my house, books are often held in place with pottery pieces, but I’m odd like that.

That’s wonderful! I’ve had so much fun doing the Facebook events! I’m sure you’ve found some of the books to be a great supplement to your homeschooling. And I love the color in your bookshelves!

Both my parents are bibliophiles and we had the best reading room in our house, lined with bookshelves and a comfy (bright orange!) chair. Now my husband thinks it’s a little strange to have so many books, but he loves me even when our bookshelves are lined two deep with books. We just got some lovely tall bookshelves to take care of that problem and your book ends are adorable and will look wonderful, thank you! p.s. I also spent my childhood looking at shapes in things, our kitchen floor had this awful linoleum that had a terrifying face in one spot and then a teddy bear in another spot.

Awe, thanks Britt! Yes, I have a total weakness for Usborne! They are some of our very favorites! I am such a sucker anytime a friend of mine has a party! HA!

HA! I am in the process of starting a Hardy Boy collection for my boys – I was raised on Nancy drew ad there’s something about the older ones! ;}

You have some wonderful classic stories with those! I adore books and I’m so thrilled to be building my children’s library with Usborne Books & More, the ones kids love, of course! 😉 And you nailed it, display them so they see, use and learn to respect them but contain them so they do not overrun your home to only become another mess. Cute bookends! Thanks again for a fun post, as always!
