It's more fun to look at memories. I recently switched up a photo on my living room shelves...I wanted to display my son's red carpet premiere pic from SXSW, but I paused ever so slightly when I noticed the stark yellow background in the pic. But I ignored it and included it, even though there's not another bright yellow thing in my home and it totally stands out. Lol!

It is down at my sons house...I had kept it in the basements as I didn't have room to put it up here downstairs and it was tall and didn't work with the sloping ceilings upstairs. I have other places to display pretty things ( room dividers , a hutch cupboard etc ) but my trouble is the books, lol which are piled downstairs here and there ....current ones or spirituality ones that I use daily ) and the rest of the poor things are not on a shelf but in a chest upstairs in the catch-all room. The toys, sewing supplies, books, and now youngest son crashing there room, ugh! :) Deb @ Frugal Little Bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091419343402163298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072740790042271296.post-17475530096006888742017-06-02T16:10:42.227-04:002017-06-02T16:10:42.227-04:00Kim that is what it;s all about, family and home. ...Kim that is what it;s all about, family and home. Our homes should reflect who we are. Your bookcase tells a story, no lots of stories and that is far more interesting than a bunch of high end accessories that mean absolutely nothing. My bookcases are stuffed to the brim, too stuffed. But I love looking at all the photos and momentos that put a smile on my face each time.

I love the red background color. I too have in my dining room bookshelves and have had all different accent colors. Thanks for the tips and now I will have to rearrange my shelves. Maybe even buy some updated pieces?<br />I have been using bloglovin now to comment on some blog post from people. I commented over there too but I'm not sure if you saw it. I wish I had more time lately to dedicate to blogging but life is very busy for me right now.<br />Well take care and thanks again.<br />Julie xoJulie's Creative Lifestylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17356593535311926517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7072740790042271296.post-16390667523654358422017-06-02T00:09:48.898-04:002017-06-02T00:09:48.898-04:00Great tips are styling bookcases!
