Sitting Room/Library

Without a need for a formal dining room, I have instead made the entry room into something I've always wanted: a library. Okay, maybe not really, but with most of my books in here it is as close as I will get for now.

Someone has commented about the formality of this room. Perhaps a bit, but these chairs are actually more comfortable than they look and this has become a great place to read.

While it's no Dewey decimal system, but there was quite a science behind the balance of form vs. function in the shelf organization. I won't bore you with the method of the shelving madness - just come over and borrow a book and I'll explain it then :)

Thanks to my Grandma Geneva for the beautiful floor lamp and matching decorative plate!
