Transforming books into interior decorations can be a creative and unique way to add a literary touch to your living space. 

It shows your passion for reading, demonstrates your taste, and also makes your house look cozy.

Here are some ideas on how to repurpose books as interior décor.

Bookshelf Displays

Stacked Books

Stack books of various sizes to create decorative towers or columns. 

You can place them on coffee tables, mantels, or side tables to add height and texture to your space. 

Consider using books with visually appealing covers or vintage editions for added charm.

Book Cover Wall Art

Frame book covers or pages with beautiful illustrations or typography to create wall art. 

Select covers that resonate with you or feature your favorite authors or book series. 

Arrange the framed book covers in a gallery-style display or as a focal point on a single wall.

Bookends

Use unique bookends to showcase your favorite books or to keep books upright on shelves. 

Bookends come in various designs and materials, such as metal, wood, or decorative figurines, allowing you to personalize your display.

Book Themed Centerpieces

Incorporate books into your table centerpieces for a literary-inspired touch. 

Stack books of varying heights and sizes as a base and place vases of flowers, candles, or other decorative elements on top.
