Let’s Start With Fun Wooden Bookshelves
Our canoe-shaped shelves are a delightful way to display your favorite pieces or collections They are perfect accent pieces. You can add a few books, a fine vase or lamp, then just enjoy. Canoe bookshelves are perfect for inside a front door to greet your guests, brightening a corner or filling that little space you need something decorative.
You can also create fun bookshelves for your children’s rooms by using open shelving against a brightly painted wall or using bright colours of paint or paper in the shelves’ backs. The shelves help your children learn neatness while they can have their toys and books where they can see them and know where they are.
Wooden Bookshelves Can Create Feel Of Old-World Elegance
Prairie Mountain’s tall bookshelves of fine wood can be placed on each side of your fireplace and perhaps along a wall in order to replicate the feel of a fine country home. If the shelves reach the ceiling (or almost) you might wish to add the same crown moulding so they appear built in.
As you fill the shelves, be sure to place similarly bound books together to add richness. You will also want to use a variety of textures such as bright ceramics, silver, brass and leather in the shelves. The addition of a ladder or a sconce can be a finishing touch.
Now, pull your favorite chair close to the fire, choose a favorite book and beverage and settle down in luxury.
