I think the old adage of only having in your home, things you use and love is something to which to aspire... but what if you love most every book you've read and those of your children's?

It is a delight to have much lightened book cupboards but people at a different stage in life, like planning on having children should be accumulating. There's just so much richness being reared in a house full of books.. (here's the secret).. that are READ. (Although they are adorable for interior design too.)
