Book Cases

18 years ago

IÂm currently living in an apartment along with nine book cases that are overflowing. I also have a surround-sound DVD system with six speakers. Does anyone know of a magazine or book that can give me some tips on how to go about arranging or choosing furniture that goes well with my books and video sound system? My current book cases are stereotypical oak. Thanks in advance.

You may not need to buy a book or magazine to help, try a search engine like google.com and entering key words like "decorating tips" or "organization tips." There are endless free resources online for interior decorating and decluttering, many websites like ivillage.com and homestore.com have entire sections devoted to "house and home" with decorating and furniture arrangement ideas, or try the homepage for HGTV (home and gardent television: www.hgtv.com). Try a few different searches online and you will find a plethora of apartment living articles and resources. One of my favorites is the website for the magazine Real Simple (see below).

Good Luck!
