How to Upgrade Your Bookshelf

Has your bookshelf become a dumping zone for anything and everything? You’re not alone. While bookshelves offer renters the perfect storage system, they can easily become a not-so-beautiful visual center that holds a wide array of items. To help you maximize this space and make it look visually organized, we’re sharing some ways that you can easily  upgrade your bookshelf.

Organize by Color

Rainbow bookshelves are becoming a popular trend, and for a very good reason. This simple, fun organization hack allows you to make use of what you already have and create a visual pattern that is pleasing to the eye. You can arrange your books and knick knacks following the rainbow or you can use your own color story to make/accent your existing decor.

Use Baskets

If you aren’t sure where to house certain items on your bookshelf or you find that you have a lot of empty space, consider using baskets. These closed containers can hide any random decor you have lying around as well as help you make better use of any available space. They can also help you stay organized!

Paint It

If you find that your bookshelf is already organized to your liking or you want to spice things up, repaint it! Whether you stick with neutrals or decide to paint it in an accent color that allows your bookshelf to take center stage in your apartment, a fresh coat of paint can do wonders.
