Show Your Love of Books ~The Bookcase

by Gwen
Welcome back to Chew & Digest Books. I am so glad that you are here!

Still waiting on my Kindle and the books continue to float through my door in paper form. That means that I am shopping for bookcases this week.

Stacked Cabinet No.1

Stacked Cabinet No.1, from Artful Home, $3,885

I love “odd” pieces of furniture and this one I LOVE, but this is a bit out of my price range.

Monticello Library Stand

Monticello Library Stand, from The Thomas Jefferson Monticello Collection, $333

Much more affordable and supports history.

Canoe Bookcase

82” Canoe Bookcase, by Millsriver Canoe Shop, $745

I have always wanted one of these, but it really doesn’t fit my decor.

Tuscan Center Bookcase, Ballard Designs, $799

This actually matches the rest of the furniture in the room, but matchy-matchy is so boring!

 

Still deciding,

Gwen

Show Your Love of Books ~ The Journal

by Gwen

My mom bought me an early birthday present a few weeks ago. A Kindle!! Wait. Don’t celebrate yet, it is still on backorder. Isn’t that just the worst? I think Dante should have added another circle of you know what for things that are backordered.

Moving on, the journal was a big hit last week, so let’s go with that. Do you journal or keep track of your books on paper?

Devilish Leather Journal

Devilish Leather Journal, by Kreativlinks, $47

12th Night Journal

12th Night Journal, by Immortal Longings, $35

Vintage Envelope Journal

Vintage Envelope Journal, by Monorail, $20

Handsewn Notebook

Hand Sewn Notebook, by Wee Bindery, $29

I do keep a little book with a list of books that I have read, just title, author, and year published. I don’t know about you, but I have had too many computers crash to trust such an important things not to have an old school list. I also journal off and on.
