bethany725 Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 haha, you had to stack double on some of the shelves! Too funny what BCF does to us. It looks all tidy and organized though.. very pretty! Quote
busy91 Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 You people have inspired me. Over the next few weeks I am going to clean up the book shelves. It may take me a whole month to do all of them, but I will get it done. Quote

tbain Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I really need to tidy my bookcase, it looks so messy and cluttered. Quote
chrysalis_stage Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 I organsied mine at home the other day. Twas alot of fun! Shelf 1. Crime, plus 4 small books on goblins and fairies. Shelf 2. History and horror-ish (mostly vampire books tbh) Shelf 3. Fantasy and books by foreign authors Shelf 4. non-fiction, general fiction and classics Shelf 5. A mix of horrible histories/science/geography, goosebumps, roald dahl, jacquline wilson - all young books together with large books that won't fit on other shelfs such as fairies and goblns but Brian Froud. Shelf 6. Another mixed shelf with large books laid flat, thin books from when I was very little and other random fiction. Looks so much better now, can actually see everything I have and I actually don't have enough, it's made me think I need to go buy more! Quote
busy91 Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 Take before and after pics OK, but be warned, it may take more than 1 month. Quote
Nollaig Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I hold you guys completely responsible for this: January 16th 2009: 37 or 38 books February 12th 2009: 59 books. No wonder I'm broke!!! May 11th 2009: 71 books. This is getting ridiculous. At least I can attribute about 9 of those to the forum! I think my convincing myself that my parents won't notice the 'small addition' of 33 books is a little naiive. Quote
Ceinwenn Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Maybe only a little naiive! They wouldn't understand?? Quote
Nollaig Posted May 13, 2009 Posted May 13, 2009 Well, since I was recently sacrificing decent food for cheap rubbish and books when I was already broke, no, they won't understand It doesn't matter, I'm going to be good from now on Til I get a job, anyway! Quote
beef Posted May 19, 2009 Author Posted May 19, 2009 Got some new shelves (thank you Aldi! home of cheap but functional things) And my uncle had a clear out so my collection has grown a bit.. Pics Quote
bethany725 Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 Beef, Yey for your new bookcases and books! They look great!! And are those some kind of tools all over your table? Quote
beef Posted May 19, 2009 Author Posted May 19, 2009 t Yes its another shelf that I did not get round to fully building yet, it currently holds various lock's and lock picking tools. Quote
bethany725 Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 Okie dok.. so tools, yes.. Why in the world do you need so many lock picking tools? I'm intrigued.... Quote
Ben Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) I think I'm about to take a picture of my book-case now. I have one already that I was supposed to put up.. but since then I've had about 50 books added to that in a box below the case.. so I want to get a pic with everything in. EDIT. - I took several pics, was easier. I'm attaching them to this message. I know they aren't very tidy. Edited May 19, 2009 by Ben Quote
bethany725 Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 That's good enough a reason as any, I suppose Quote
lexiepiper Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 That's what I like to see Ben, your room is overrun with books! Quote

If ever you post saying your off to get a book from your shelves and aren't heard from for a few hours, we will all start worrying now! Ill post photos of my bookshelves when I have them all as some of my books are at my mum and dads house and I only have around 50 here at home. Quote

If ever you post saying your off to get a book from your shelves and aren't heard from for a few hours, we will all start worrying now! Agreed! Don't linger on front of them for too long!! There's quite a few books to crush you there!! Quote
Ben Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 That's what I like to see Ben, your room is overrun with books! That's what I like to see as well. I'd also like to see a bigger room.

Aha, at one point we thought they looked unstable, but they've never fallen or anything, so *touch wood*, we should be ok. Agreed! Don't linger on front of them for too long!! There's quite a few books to crush you there!! I know.. *runs* Quote
Weave Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) That is a fair collection of books you have there Ben, well done My bookshelf does not look that different but I have more books Edited May 20, 2009 by Weave Quote

Stephanie2008 Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 I have one smaller bookcase full of my best ones but most of my books are in 3 storage boxes because I have hundreds of DVD's to display Quote
