Shelfie : Holiday Edition

Shelfie : Holiday Edition - roomfortuesday.comIt has been awhile since I’ve shared a “Shelfie” post, and based on the positive response from my styled holiday built-ins, I thought this would be perfect timing! Consider this the Shelfie Christmas Edition. I’m a big fan of traditional holiday decor and using classic colors- like red and green. Click through to see how I styled this month’s shelf and shop the sources…

I’ll start by saying, I thrifted a bunch of red spined books, but you can also buy color coordinated sets (linked below), if you’re weird about bringing thrifted books into your home. I love the idea of using monochromatic books in holiday colors as a backdrop for shelf styling, then filling in the gaps with holiday decor and decorative objects.

You can click directly on the objects styled on the shelf to shop- or use the linked items below!

There are a few objects I consider mandatory for holiday styling: deer, Christmas trees, cozy candles, greenery, twinkle lights, and appropriate art. Somehow, I managed to cram all of those items into the bookcase. For the art- I hate wasting time swapping out art, so I’ll just tape a print on top of the glass, then pull it off after the holiday. In this scenario, I opted for vintage ski prints (as seen in our master bedroom).
