Gallery Bookshelf Round Up
February 12, 2010 by Kat · 3 Comments
After sharing our book corner with you earlier in the week I have got a quick round up of gallery bookshelves for you. Gallery bookshelves are great for kids as it gives them access to books and makes selecting them much easier. They also look fabulous decked out with colourful picture books.
The small gallery bookshelf (above left) is ideal for a small corner or for beside the bed £26 from GLTC. The Tidy Books bookshelf (above centre) holds an impressive 85 books and is available in a range of finishes, with or without an alphabet £109. I think that the Pisa Display Shelf (above right) is a seriously show stopping piece of furniture and is currently 50% off at £50 from GLTC.
This chunky Reading Shelf from Vertbaudet is great if you’re short on wall space or renting. It has three deep divided shelves on the front and a hidden storage compartment around the back. £75.
Both of the shelves above were made using the Ribba Picture Ledge from Ikea. At just £4.99 for a 55cm ledge it is a chic budget option which can be used to create a stunning DIY option.

Great round-up. I’m especially impressed with the use of the Ikea Picture Ledge. I might consider a couple of shelves like this for our girls at the bottom of other sets of book shelves.
