Is it Hoarding or....

just collecting when you have 100 of one item? Seriously, found like 20 more skeleton keys and hooks since my last post.
 
Now, I'm supposed to be organizing my vintage books, yet here I am, posting again. I have a serious case of ADD going on today. Maybe too much coffee with a dose of procrastination?
 
My vintage book collection... minus the ones that are still in Amazon.com and ebay.com boxes.
I love love love vintage books. I actually read them. My favorite is Sir Walter Scott and I have every one of his old books, original editions, probably 3 times over. I am also addicted to stuff about the old Hollywood stars, Marilyn, James Dean, Elvis, etc.... except those books aren't as old.
 




This bookshelf is all my home décor and home maintenance books.... and I've looked through every one of them at least 20 times. I LOVE books. Believe it or not, I have another entire bookshelf of chick lit (Devil Wears Prada type of books) and another whole shelf of diet books, and spiritual type books. But, those shelves are messy, so not taking photos. 

 
I often joke around with my girls that they are going to make thousands of dollars at my estate sale after I kick the bucket. They don't think that's very funny. But, none of my stuff interests them. Except my paintings of roses, my youngest daughter will take those.

  2. Thank you Julie! Once I get my dining room and living room painted the way I want, I will display more of them. I see so many awesome ideas in other blogs when it comes to book displays. So pretty!
