The Domino Effect

A few years back, while reading Domino magazine,
I first came across the

whole color coded book case trend.

 At first, I didn't know what to make of it...

but the more I saw it, the more it appealed to my sense

of order in design.

Eventually, I decided that

 I wanted to emulate this look in my own home...

Last month, I finally tackled the 

big bookcase in our family room.

{here it is "before"}

and...

 {stylishly organized "after"}

I know some people think organizing books by

color is a bit contrived or ridiculous.

But, for a decor trend that literally costs nothing,

is reversible, and is based on organizing things...

this just makes me happy!
