An easy way to add interest + splashes of color to your decor is by decorating with books. Whether it’s on the coffee table, on book shelves, in the kitchen or even on the bar, books are a whimsical touch to any decor.
I have seen a lot of books that are covered in white paper or burlap to fit in with neutral decor. This is a pretty look but lacks some personality. Instead of trying to blend books into their surroundings try to strategically place books with already pretty covers in areas that complement the space.
Here are some of my favorite books to work into your spring + summer decor update.
