My hubbie built me a bookshelf that fills a wall and it's still not enough! Actually, not even close. :)
I listen to books when I am working on the walls or furniture. Can't get enough!

Me, me, me - pick me!
Love books - especially leather ones.
I love books. I almost have two full bookshelves and after the last row is filled out I'm going to have to get creative with my space. I enjoy the smell of leather books. They are rich with history and life!
I have a newly built bookcase at the end of my hallway that would look fabulous filled with books like those!! Love the leather ones!!

Hi lovely Mona, I am off to the beach but want to make sure that my name is put in the hat!
I love books and get seriously nervous when people don't display any books in their homes. Books tell a lot about people!
You already know how I love to mix old with new. My old books are all in our dining room and there is room for three more handsome fellows!
Thank you for the generous giveway.
