Corner Bookcases: What You Need to Know

Your mind might not jump directly to a wood corner bookcase when you're thinking of buying a bookcase for your home, but for certain people, it's an excellent and practical choice. If you're looking for a bookcase for a small or cluttered room, wood corner bookcases are an efficient way to store your books, vases and photographs.

3 Shelf Folding Bookcase

So what makes the corner bookcase so special? It is designed to fit in that unused corner space that is so often left neglected, freeing up more space in the rest of the room. This way your books will be stylishly showcased and the room will appear to be more spacious.

Corner Bookcase Placement

If you're looking to add a bookcase to a room in your home, take a second and check out the layout. Is the room already quite busy with furniture, and there's not a lot of free space for another piece? If you were to put a bookcase in the corner, would it make the room look too cluttered? If you think a wood corner bookcase would enhance the room rather than take away from it, then it's time to take measurements.

Taking measurements is such an important step that you should probably do it twice. You don't want to go to all the trouble of shopping for and buying a wood corner bookcase, only to bring it home and find that it doesn't fit in its designated spot. Determine the height that you're looking for. For certain rooms, a wood corner bookcase that is the same height as your couches or coffee tables provides the right amount of visual symmetry, while other rooms will call for a taller bookcase. Depending on the amount of floor space available to you, you'll need to choose between a free-standing corner book case and a wall-mounted one.

Yes, it is called a corner bookcase, but that doesn't mean that it has to be put in the corner of a room. Its unique shape allows it to be placed next to anything that has a right angle. For instance, if you have the luxury of a spacious room, you could place it next to an armoire or cabinet. If the two pieces match stylistically, this will look like a natural extension and will give the room continuity.

Bookcase Storage Setup

Keep in mind that bookcases are, in fact, for storing books. If you have a large number of books that you're looking to shelve, then that should also influence your decision. Determine if you're OK with fixed shelving, or if adjustable shelves are a 'must have' on your list. Adjustable shelves give you a little more flexibility when it comes to showcasing your items, as you'll be able to arrange your books according to size; larger space between shelves for your hardcovers, smaller shelves for paperbacks and photo frames. This will give your corner bookshelf a clean, streamlined look.

Tips For Utilizing and Decorating a Bookshelf

Whether you have a built-in bookshelf or you just have a large freestanding bookshelf, it can be difficult to decide on how you want to utilize the space. Most people like to use bookshelves as not only storage for their books, but also an area in the room that radiates style and personality.

3 Shelf Folding Bookcase

Here are a few different ideas on how you can utilize and decorate a bookshelf in your home.

3 Shelf Folding Bookcase

Decorate the Bookshelf with Books

It may be common sense to use place books on your bookshelf but this doesn't mean you randomly place your library up on the shelves. In fact, you may not even use the bookshelf for most of your books. A great way to decorate a bookshelf is with interesting and antique books that give the space personality. These can be old books you find at a flea market or used book store or they can be modern day coffee books or art books. What kind of book you use all depends on what style you are going for.

Another factor to consider is where you place the books. Unless you want the whole bookshelf to just be books, pick certain areas of the shelf to display and arrange the interesting books. You can use stylish bookends to hold the books in place. You can even get creative and arrange some books horizontally and others vertically. Or you can arrange books by color or size. Create an atmosphere!

Decorate the Bookshelf with Picture Frames

The picture frames that you place on the bookshelf can have actual photographs in them or works of art - it all depends on the style you are going with. Some people may put photos of their family up on the shelves, while others will be framed paintings and professional photographs. Be sure to use frames that match the style of the room.

Decorate the Bookshelf with Figurines

There are thousands of different ways that you can decorate a bookshelf with figurines. The figurines that you choose for this space should appropriately reflect the style of the room. You can use figurines to hold up books or you can simply place them all alone on a shelf. Look for figurines that appear to go together but are not exactly the same. "Figurines" is a really general term, and can mean anything from a statue to a craft piece to little knickknacks.

Decorate the Bookshelf with Plants and Flowers

A vase filled with flowers or a small house plant can look great when placed on a bookshelf. This can be a way that you can add some different colors to the area as well as lighten up the space. If you are using real flowers and plants, just be sure that you are taking care of them properly and not ruining anything else on the shelves with leaking water or forgotten leaves.

Decorate the Bookshelf by Adjusting the Shelves

When you adjust the heights of the bookshelves you can create a unique space that is personally yours. On one are of the shelf, you may have a space that is large to accommodate bigger books or a plant. On another spot on the bookshelf, you may have a small space in between shelves for smaller books or for small figurines. Adjusting the shelves is one of the best ways to add some real style to the space.

A bookshelf doesn't have to be boring. Instead use your creativity and the decor items mentioned to create a unique bookshelf for your home.

The Bookcase - Not Just for the Nerd Anymore

When you think of someone who owns a bookcase, or wants to pick one up for their home, you may think that this person could be the biggest nerd on the planet. Seriously, who else other than a bookworm would need one? Actually, a bookcase can be for everyone. They are multi-purpose, decorative pieces that can enhance the ambiance of any home or office. And just in case you don't look smart already (despite your 4.0 GPA), having one really helps.

3 Shelf Folding Bookcase

So if you don't read all that often, or own that many books, why would you need a bookcase? Probably because you may choose to place anything you want in them. They are the great place to show off your sports trophies during that amazing season in college football. You can also place photos of your loved ones or family portraits in bookcases as well. In any case, the bookcase is the perfect piece to display and show off your memorabilia and valuables.

3 Shelf Folding Bookcase

For those who take movies and music seriously, bookcases make a great substitute for your standard media storage center. Just imagine how many DVD's, CD's, video games, Blu Ray Discs, and VHS Tapes you can store in a bookcase.

In the office, bookcases are often used to store more than just text books. It's not uncommon to see files, folders, binders, and data CD's placed in them too.

Now you're thinking to yourself that perhaps you could use a bookcase in the home or office after all. You now realize that they may have other uses other than storing books and magazines, but you're still unsure what to look for when shopping for one. To help you out, here is a quick guide in what to look for.

Although most bookcases seem pretty standard, there are different types and styles, each with their own unique options and features. A standard bookcase may seem be a rectangular shelf and not much more to it. However, many are equipped with adjustable shelves in case you need more room for your books or whatnots at the bottom shelves, or wherever it is that tickles your fancy.

As oppose to the office, the home may benefit from a wooden bookcase, rather than one made of metal. Having one made of wood provides a vintage, romantic atmosphere in the home. Many furniture manufacturers will also design them with intricate accents for added brilliance. You may also find some with doors, and drawers for protection against the elements and added storage. However, if you need a bookcase for the office, a metal one would be an ideal choice due to its versatility.

If saving space is an issue, consider a corner bookcase. These are made specifically to fit into corners allowing you to use the floor space for other pieces of furniture such as desks, filing cabinets, credenzas, etc.

So there you have it. Bookcases aren't just for nerds anymore. If you're an athlete, use them to display your trophies. By all means, display photos of your loved ones in your bookcase. However, if you indeed read a lot and own many books, then you're probably going to need a bookcase anyway, because where else you going to keep them?
