bookshelf tour ✨

🫧🧸📖🧋☁️

finally got one of my bookshelves organized! i’ve never been the best at keeping my shelves together, but ever since starting this account my books have been all over the place.

i still have two carts and two white cubes with books and three rogue stacks on the floor that still need order just that’s a problem for future me.

how do you organize your books? 📚
