Latest Little Project
Last Friday while I was enjoying a rare day off and waiting for evening and the AF Ball to arrive, I decided to rearrange our bookcase according to color!

I've seen this several times is magazines too. I really like the transformation! I like the way you have an item on each shelf like a picture or a book facing forward. Adds to the interest. Charlottes's Web was a great choice! And the blue words tie in with the light blue books above it.

We do this too! I'll have to take a picture and send it to you. Yours looks great. I spent way to much time trying to get it just right on our bookshelf when we moved in, but it's a fun project.

This is cute Tara! I saw recently that one of my friends also organizes her DVDs by color. It looks cool.
