Things I love: Book Stacks

I love buying books and as much as I would love to have a Kindle one day there is just something about stacking books that appeals to my eye. I love to stack books around my house for cheap and easy ways to add charter to my home. I have stack of books in almost every room of my house and rotate them with the seasons or my mood. Here are some of my book stacks that I have piled around the house.
Beautiful Classics.


They can help a room form a theme. These are the books I have in the Dude room (too bad they are all my books, sans the Arnold one).
Fashion Books are some of my favorite to collect! I have many of them that I rotate to inspire me.
You know I have Barbie books!

    I share your love for having books all over the house. I think we are going to run out of bookshelf space! Looks great!

    That's such a cute idea! When I was antiquing last weekend, I bought Vogue's Guide to Etiquette because it was this amazing bright purple and I just thought it would look so amazing in my apartment haha!

    Add "charter" to your home??? You might want to check the dictionary on your usage there...
