yummy colour-order bookshelves

I've gone and done it (thanks for doing all the lifting, Mr Pippa).

You know how I love seeing things in colour order? (Yes, you already know this.) Remember ages and ages ago I said I'd love to put my books into colour order? I'm not the first to do it:

 A face! Made from books! (source)

And while we're on books and bookshelves, this one made me smile. Is it just me, or does it look as though the shelves are looking down thinking, "Why do those books keep falling out whenever I look down?" (source)

Again, not colour order but I like it. You just know that the day after you do this, you'll need to use the book 3rd from the bottom. No, I shan't be arranging my books like that (fear not, Mr Pippa). Interestingly, we do happen to have something similar going on on our living room floor. It's not an artistic statement, it's just a pile of books to take to the charity shop. Could I have been subconsciously influenced by this picture?


Anyway, enough of that. Here are my shelves:




Hooray! Grouping colours is fun!

Yes, that's right, I created this blog post for the sole purpose of showing you my bookshelves. 


That is all.

  1. Hahaa, I did same with my books. Still they doesn't look as good as they could. I have too much boring coloured books! But some months ago I just posted a picture to my blog: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_mcqD3NN6hSc/TDnVC0QquMI/AAAAAAAABck/Bb50-oqKDhY/s1600/8.JPG ((:

  2. Your shelves are great! I think yours look more striking because they're all next to each other. Great photo :)
