on’t let living in a compact apartment prevent
you from having a library. Make the most of
the space just below the ceiling by installing
a Shaker-style floating shelf with hooks for
hanging storage boxes for newspapers and brochures, and
a step ladder to reach your books. Start on one wall and,
as your collection grows, take the shelving right around
the room. You can go the DIY route with shelving cut to size,
but books are heavy, so it might be best to call in a carpenter.
START A LIBRARY
It is possible to have a book collection in a small apartment – all it takes is a little creativity!
