Built-In's and Out's

Recently I have had several people ask me how to arrange their built in's and or bookcases.  Believe it or not there is a "proper" way to arrange your goodies.  

These are just my thoughts not everyone may agree :)

Here are some Basic Tips:

Less is usually more

Alternate shelf content

Grouping similar colors together

Books are always a great look

Use different heights to create visual interest

Always use goodies you LOVE

Personally I think if using family photos keep to a minimum (just my opinion)

Here are some images to inspire you...

I am helping my dear friend Marla with her built in's in her living room, once we are done I will be posting before and afters!!!
