Book Racks, Rope Swing Shelves, and Other Hanging Bookshelves

Book Racks, Rope Swing Shelves, and Other Hanging Bookshelves https://ift.tt/3yaRROB

Now that macrame has come back into style, it’s brought with it a ton of interesting matching bookshelves. This boho style is often characterized by lots of plants, including ones displayed in hanging planters, so it makes sense that bookshelves in a similar style would follow after it.

All these shelves are suspended: they hang usually from rope, but some of them use wire. Many of them match that boho chic aesthetic, but there is a range of styles represented here. I’ve also included book racks, where each book is suspended on its own loop. I recently saw this in a BookTok video, and that’s what inspired the post — it’s such unique-looking shelving!

I will admit that the sturdiness of these shelves will vary. Some may be more suited for a few decorative books, while others can stand up under the weight of a full stack. Most of these will require bookends or strategic book stacks, since the edges are left open, but it’s a small sacrifice for the look, isn’t it? These are unlikely to be your main shelving system, but they’re a fun way to sprinkle books throughout your house.
