RULES: you either love them or hate them! 
 
When it comes to decorating your home, rules can be helpful but also restricting. Let's think of them as guidelines. Guidelines are meant to be shifted and change depending on the purpose of styling. Today, we're talking BOOKSHELF STYLING.
Bookshelves are an opportunity for you to showcase your personal style while telling your story. Bookshelves, however, can be 100% books or 100% tchotchkes. The balance I like to create and the one we're talking about inside today's episode is bookshelves that use this ONE rule: 80/20
Bookshelves that have 80% practicality (not all books as you'll hear inside the show) and 20% accessories.
Here's a challenge for you: think about displaying some practical, yet beautiful pieces on your bookshelf instead of tucking them away inside your closed cabinets or taking up real estate inside your garage. 
What are beautiful pieces that are practical for a bookshelf?
Vases, baskets, and boxes are just a few.
