[thanks, sam!]

Because my boyfriend and I were both English majors, we have a ridiculous number of books and so I color coordinated our books similarly when when moved in together. He expressed concern about my mental health after I organized them as such. I just showed this picture to my boyfriend to prove that I’m design conscious rather than obsessive-compulsive. :)

These are absolutely stunning!

It finally occurred to me that a lot of these books appear to be travel guides that have colorful spines.

WOW. Amazing and striking effect. You can just imagine, every single person who sees that will say ‘you actually arranged all of those by COLOUR???’. LOL

This totally inspired me to organize our bookshelves by color. The result is simply amazing - I am so pleased. But I am wondering where all of Jennifer’s white and black books are? We have so many that they take up a significant portion of our shelves. There is a photo on my blog at www.plumdesigns.com.
