We use our third bedroom as a library, but all the shelves are full and there are stacks and stacks of books around the room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1993114 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 20:43:48 +0000 Andrea 1993114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we have tons of bookcases and built-ins because we've always loved buying books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1993080 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 19:42:02 +0000 Greentea 1993080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I built one with my dad last year and it was 6 feet by 6 feet, it still wasn't big enough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1993037 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 18:15:30 +0000 Adira 1993037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are running out of space for books. I get a ton of books for Christmas every year and we already have 6 large bookcases! I think one of the bookcases is going to get the books doubled up because I don't have any more space for more bookcases! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1993025 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 17:43:09 +0000 Freckles 1993025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: yep!

I've never been able to fit all my books on shelves before, and so many are paperbacks that with these I actually have extra space now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992949 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 14:42:16 +0000 lamariniere 1992949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a large bookcase in the living room (from a local furniture store) filled with books. In my office area there is another smaller bookcase (CB2) that has books and papers and then DS has a little cube in his room that serves as a bookshelf/nightstand (local furniture store). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992914 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 13:44:21 +0000 Espion 1992914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I think Little Green Notebook had a nice tutorial about making the Billy bookcases look like built-ins! </p> <p>We have zero bookcases, but hopefully DH will build us some this summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992913 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 13:44:10 +0000 BSB 1992913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Torchwood: oh, I like those risers!! Some of our book shelves are deep and risers would definitely help. It's definitely more efficient use of space. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992912 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 13:43:17 +0000 BSB 1992912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, most are ikea book shelves but we needed some sturdier ones and found some solid wood ones in CL. They were cheaper, stronger and held more than the ikea ones. It was a warehouse selling their bookshelves for $50. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992850 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 11:45:14 +0000 Torchwood 1992850@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I finally have enough shelf space for all of my books for the first time, because DH built me risers for the paperbacks. There was so much wasted space that I can use now! </p> [attach=3674/14/ngw3ve.269x360.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992817 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 10:42:02 +0000 mrs. bird 1992817@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no, i wish i did though. i got rid of a lot of books, but i still have some in boxes. i have two tall bookshelves in my spare room/office, then two half height ones and one of those cube cubby things &amp; a few of the cubes have books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992816 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 10:40:21 +0000 autumnlove 1992816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: ooh are your Billys pushed together? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992812 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 10:38:00 +0000 Freckles 1992812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We bought 3 billy bookcases for our basement and they store all of our books! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-bookshelves-for-all-your-books#post-1992776 Sat, 20 Dec 2014 09:54:36 +0000 autumnlove 1992776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a lot of books and we need more shelves!
