  • Four Reasons You Definitely Need A Bookshelf In Your Home

    I live in a tiny house. I have one bedroom, a kitchen, a bathroom, and two bookshelves. I also have two cupboards filled with books that I couldn’t fit on my shelves. So, to convince myself (and you) that I am not a hoarder and do not require an intervention, I’ve come up with four…
