Thursday, a library, and Etsy

If I had the good fortune to have a whole room in my house dedicated to something totally frivolous, but also totally awesome, I would make it into a library for my kids. A space separate from their bedrooms or play space where we could go to read and do schoolwork....wow, this really is kind of a dorky dream, but still I love the idea- for this Thursday and Etsy entry - a children's library.

The concept of a whole wall of shelves for storing and organizing books makes me giddy..... I may even have to employ the dewey decimal system!

I like a table and chairs for the workspace, just like in a real library with plenty of room to spread out and perfect lighting.

For something a little more comfortable- a couple of beanbags and a cool, cozy chair.

Finally, just because it makes me smile every time I look at it...how often do you see a funny clock? This is one great library....
