I am super proud of my first #diyhomedecor project for the office, these bookshelves are perf for storage and display 💁🏻♀️
I purchased two bookshelves from Ikea and put them together to create a grander look. Then, I ordered the matching cubbies for the bottom shelf. The silver knobs didn't quite fit my vibe so I swapped them out and upgraded to these these great leather pulls from amazon!
Here are my 5 styling tips to create your own #shelfiedecor moment for your home below. Tip #5 is my favorite - personal touches and story telling in your space are so important! Here are two examples of how I incorporated a personal touch that was meaningful to me in my studio.
The large scale print in the background says, "somewhere over the rainbow" repeated over and over again. This is a nod to my Great Great Aunt Clara who played Auntie Em in the Wizard of Oz.
On the top right of my bookshelf there's a vintage typewriter that was owned by my Grandfather. He was a professional joke writer for the New Yorker and typed all of his jokes on this bad boy. My husband and I also used it at a guest book at our wedding.
For sources to recreate this look for you own, head on over to my shop on amazon to purchase some new styling goodies for yourself!
Xo,
Tay
