Not My Precious Books! Decluttering your library, courtesy of Houzz.

I have stacks of books all over my house. The reason they’re stacked up on the floor is because my book shelves are so packed several shelves have broken. And still, I can’t part with any of my treasured novels. Will I read them again? Probably not. But books are a work of art and just having them around makes my home feel peaceful. 

This article from Houzz.com helped me re-imagine ways to show off my precious books, and yes, maybe even get rid of a few.
