Recently, my husband asked me what I wanted for my birthday since it’s coming up around Christmas. And without hesitation, I told him I wanted a bookcase.
I’ve been wanting one for a while and now that we have an extra room, I have plans to turn it into a library.
The walls in that room are light gray with white trims, so I thought a white bookshelf would be perfect.

White Industrial Bookcase
I’ve never owned a bookshelf in my decades of existence as a book lover. Mostly because I was content with my books being in boxes. But now I think is the perfect time to put all of my books on display with this white bookshelf.
Here are the reasons I love this one.
It’s a Tall Bookshelf
When researching bookshelves on Amazon, I found some that were around 60 inches tall. I’m a short girl, so 60 inches is my literal height. I wanted something that would be taller than me.
This bookcase is 70 inches tall with 6 shelves. 4 shelves are out on display while the other 2 are inside behind the farmhouse-style cabinet doors.
Did You Say Cabinet Doors?
Another reason I was drawn to this bookcase is the cabinet doors. I love the unique look I believe will bring to my soon-to-be library. A bookcase with no doors is great, but having the option for a cabinet gives me the option to do more.
I can put books I don’t want on display on the cabinet shelves. That can either be some textbooks I have (fashion, real estate, and technical writing books). Or I can put away the smutty books. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Where To Put It?
Thinking about getting this bookcase? The great thing is you can put it almost anywhere. I’d say it will go well in your living room, office, bedroom, or spare room.
Or you can place it in places like the dining room, kitchen, or dining room. it all depends on how you want to use this bookcase.
How To Use A Bookshelf?
You can put your books on there. That’s one way. But you can put literally anything on this bookshelf. Here are some things or ways to use it.
- Family pictures
- Trophies
- Knick-knacks
- Teddybears and toys
- Home decor accessories
- Fine china
- Wine or Liquor bottles with glasses in the cabinet
- Candles
- Flowers
Til next time,
– Much Love, Ash ❤️
