Shelfie Time!

Hey look, I finally dusted my shelves! :sweat_smile:
Most of the first four have a back layer. :catherineread:

One of my bookshelves is also double-layered, so you’re in good company!

Right now this is my only personal bookshelf, but I have enough books to completely overflow another identical shelf if I were to get one (which I plan to do after our situation stabilizes a bit). Not ashamed to say I also have 5 more books on the way with nowhere to put them!

Just wanted to mention how absolutely invaluable this thread is, having a reference for how to re-tetris all my books and things after moving. So helpful.

I forgot this thread existed until Ash resurrected it, but I’m happy I have a place to show the ridiculousness of my bookshelves :joy:

Even though we got rid of some books before we moved in together, we still have an absurd amount of books. Most of our shelves are double stack (and still not everything fits, but non-fiction is most of the left bookcase while all of the right one is fiction!

I’m finally getting an actual bookshelf, so I’ll be able to arrange my books all nice. I usually just keep all my books in boxes other than the ones I’m actually reading because I didn’t have anywhere else to put them, and the ones I was reading would end up cluttering what little desk space is have or sitting on my bed. I finally decided I need a real (though small) bookshelf to make things a little tidier and be able to show off some of the really nice books I have. I will of course post a picture once I have it set up.

So I posted a picture of my shelves earlier this year, but I’m currently in the process of moving to a new apartment with my wife. We’re moving furniture on Saturday, but we’ve been bringing a car load of things to our new apartment (an hour away from our current place, but only 5 minutes from my spouse’s job) so we’re making good progress on getting stuff out of our current place.

This morning, I officially finished moving our books in, so I wanted to present to you all Shelves, Deconstructed:


As you might rightly assume, this took A LOT of trips, but I’m certainly happy (as is my body) to not have to lift any more boxes of books up to the third floor!

Side note: you can see the BoB if you look closely!

I have a similar photo for the opposite reason. This is the stack of books that I gave away when I was very heavily pregnant with my son and needed more room in the house. :grin:


Sometimes I still miss them…

We moved about a month ago, and even though we shelved our books pretty quickly, the area wasn’t complete until this weekend. Here’s our new bookshelf/reading area situation!

I thought I saw a sewing machine on that table over there but was mistaken
