Each was about a different woman of royalty throughout history and the world like Cleopatra and Anastasia. However, I got rid of them. I honestly can't remember why I didn't keep them. I think because no one in my house was reading them and because I didn't have time to vet them myself.

In the 5th photo, there are books such as little house series, 20th Century Children's Book Treasury, Cookies and Crutches. What I was asking was the stack of 5 hardcover books near the little house book box, 4 of which have golden cover and golden rim paper and 1 has blue cover. They look beautiful.

Now that we're building a house I'm hoping we're planning on a few built-ins like your shelves so we can get them all out again. Can't wait! We were also just at the thrift store yesterday and found 4 books of a great series called "Young Folks Library" from 1958 that has a GREAT selection of stories and excerpts from books. Really looking forward to building up our homeschool library too!Karennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7628767515693863152.post-82813158300900405152016-05-27T13:29:59.429-07:002016-05-27T13:29:59.429-07:00What a wonderful idea!

And your solution for helping the kids keep the books organized is genius!

I organize my nonfiction books in our schoolroom a similar way and our fiction books are in the "Book Nook" at the top of our stairs - organized by series or type. I LOVE the paint stick idea and am going to make some for our family - which also happens to be color-coded. ;) I love books and hope to instill a love for them in our children.
