Jealous of the library wall

indesii.bsky.social•28 days ago

This is gorgeeeouus and I'm so envious. I can’t zoom in enough to see, but do you organise alphabetically? Is that a little TBR cart? 👀 Truly genius if so

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

I organize alphabetically by author last name and the books are split in half, ones I’ve read and ones I haven’t yet. And yes, it’s a little book cart 😊

lmcc112.bsky.social•27 days ago

A few cascading plants for the perfect touch! Love it!

ethangoodrum.bsky.social•28 days ago

I’m jealous

ong-yaa.bsky.social•28 days ago

That's my dream right there. 🥹What's your favorite book in there?

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

That’s a tough question! I read the Green Bone Saga trilogy early last year and I still can’t stop thinking about them

ong-yaa.bsky.social•28 days ago

Green Bone Saga trilogy is on my book wishlist now 😆😆 What's so good about it?

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

The characters!! They are ruthless and horrible sometimes but you can’t help loving them. Also Fonda Lee is a fantastic writer and you’ll be in tears by the end.

authorsamarareed.bsky.social•28 days ago

This....THIS is a requirement in my next house. 😍

theredheadedwitch.bsky.social•28 days ago

wow 😍

elizabethlyons.bsky.social•27 days ago

Aaaand my entire plan for the day just changed 👏🏻👏🏻

lizzardlulu.bsky.social•28 days ago

Nice!

cillaneve.bsky.social•27 days ago

Looks gorgeous!

maniac2631.bsky.social•28 days ago

Very cool 😎

mztee08.bsky.social•27 days ago

Love this! Where did you get the shelves from?

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•27 days ago

They’re from IKEA!

mztee08.bsky.social•27 days ago

Very nice!

drossman.bsky.social•28 days ago

Plus, a watering can with a very long handle.

brianemophiliac.bsky.social•28 days ago

As a fantasy fan and plant person may I suggest trailing plants to flow from top to bottom. Plants like pothos, scindapsis, and some philodendron. Then you’ll have fantasy jungle shelves perhaps and maybe hide some vertical lines between shelves. Looks great either way just here to enable plants.

cmmme.bsky.social•28 days ago

Someone has taken just one book out of each section and stored them on a trolley....

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

Gotta leave room for any new arrivals 😂

cmmme.bsky.social•28 days ago

I guess they needed a better insurance policy....

sadventure.bsky.social•28 days ago

That looks awesome!

geengeenreads.bsky.social•28 days ago

love your library wall

citrineglitter.bsky.social•28 days ago

Get some philodendrons. They'll spill over the shelves and look neat, but they're easily pushed aside when you want to take a book out or put it back.

beckyib.bsky.social•29 days ago

The book cart is * chef’s kiss*

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Thank you!! 😊

aquitaine49.bsky.social•28 days ago

Do you know about Book Buddy app? Great for cataloging

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

I don’t, but I’m going to look it up now!!

aquitaine49.bsky.social•28 days ago

My late husband built the same on all the walls in one room. Over 3000 books at one time.

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

Wow!! That’s incredible! That’s goals for sure

ganchorusev.com•28 days ago

Looks great!

I am dreaming of having something similar...

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

You’ll make it happen, I’m sure 😊

clarissarod.bsky.social•28 days ago

This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. My book-loving and plant-loving heart are jumping with joy! 🌿📚❤️

steveprior.bsky.social•26 days ago

OMG.

smallbirb.bsky.social•29 days ago

I think you need more books

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

Then I’d need another bookcase 😂

badmojo619.bsky.social•29 days ago

That looks so good!!

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Thank you! 😊 it’s taken a long time to get to this point 😂

nerissassippi.bsky.social•29 days ago

I love looking at other peoples bookcases 😍

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Oh me too haha

gigilibrarian.bsky.social•27 days ago

This is stunning!

dhil47.bsky.social•29 days ago

Can I ask what bookshelves they are

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Of course! They’re the Billy bookcase from IKEA

fredbux.bsky.social•28 days ago

Beautiful. Amazing in fact. I’ll be showing this to my wife as a source of inspiration.

mwcmoto.bsky.social•26 days ago

Gorgeous!!!

fordzie.bsky.social•28 days ago

lalaxreads.bsky.social•28 days ago

Oh yes! I nice long creeping pothos would look good 🤌

wills1406.bsky.social•29 days ago

This looks so nice! I would love to have a small cozy room for my books!

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Thanks! This room is also our dining room, I just pushed the table and chairs out of the way for the pic 😂 but it is still cozy 😊

skkruse.bsky.social•28 days ago

Looks great!

intheruins.bsky.social•27 days ago

I agree but where would you put them? 🤔😆

emmawildvet.bsky.social•27 days ago

that looks so good!😍

marcoperri.bsky.social•28 days ago

God damn! 🤘🤘

wasabimomma.bsky.social•28 days ago

Beautiful nice job

katiepearce.bsky.social•27 days ago

I’m so jealous 😤
But I’ve been so busy writing my own books I haven’t even had the time to look into filling my own bookshelves. Sigh!

josephjason.bsky.social•28 days ago

I love this so much!

greenmanz.bsky.social•28 days ago

You’re gonna need a bigger wall.

mryeswecan.bsky.social•25 days ago

There still are gaps to fill!

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•25 days ago

Room for more books!

themagicalquill.bsky.social•26 days ago

That’s a beautiful library! One day I hope to have shelves 😅.

davenatural.bsky.social•28 days ago

eja27.bsky.social•28 days ago

Vines… vines!

mojomantra80.bsky.social•29 days ago

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

jennobenno.bsky.social•28 days ago

Nice. You’ll never be bored.

krautinuk.bsky.social•29 days ago

Are you planning to get some living plants ?

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Not in that room. It gets almost no sunlight so they wouldn’t be happy there unfortunately ☹️

ms1955.bsky.social•29 days ago

Wow! Have you read all those books? Do you have the book, "Let It Roll?"

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Not yet! It’s a work in progress 😂 I don’t have the book “Let it Roll” - who is the author?

ms1955.bsky.social•28 days ago

D.D. Dawson, I think. Happy Reading.

happilyundignified.bsky.social•28 days ago

It looks great!

amandabcook.bsky.social•28 days ago

Love it! Get a pothos, it’ll look awesome when it starts trailing down 🤩

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

That’s the goal!! I love that look

canadian4ever.bsky.social•27 days ago

That's incredible!! Great library

samlobos.bsky.social•28 days ago

delighteddisorder.bsky.social•28 days ago

Pothos! They're so easy and grow so fast.

storiesbooksandtea.bsky.social•29 days ago

Omg omg omg I LOVE THAT 😍😍😍

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•29 days ago

Thanks, me too! Can’t stop looking at them 😂

readingginger.bsky.social•28 days ago

Giving me inspiration for when I start a book wall 😍

martilives.bsky.social•28 days ago

Quietly they’re cleaning the air you breathe…God’s gift to you

munama.bsky.social•28 days ago

Good taste with the Outlander series. Do you have a top five +/- favorite book list?

elliesbookshelf.bsky.social•28 days ago

Tough question… probably The Green Bone Saga trilogy, The Broken Earth trilogy, The Priory of the Orange Tree, and the Winternight trilogy. But I’m sure I’m missing some haha

mariannhardey.com•28 days ago

Ooo loving the additional book trolley :-)

boredsteph.bsky.social•28 days ago

Gorgeous😍

laurensfullybooked.bsky.social•25 days ago

It looks amazing!!

heart-home.bsky.social•28 days ago

So much nicer than my stacks of books on the floor! I really like a paper book best, but the storage space is an issue so I mostly read e-books now. Maybe I'll get used to it...
