And, I agree -- I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I actually owned these beautiful libraries and nooks. I almost swooned a couple years ago when my husband had a big, beautiful bookcase built for me in our family room. It's not quite the same as the beauties I showcased here, but it is lovely :)<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-53128830235929141152019-08-29T17:06:55.489-07:002019-08-29T17:06:55.489-07:00Seriously!

I don't even know what I would do with myself if I ever got my dream library.
