At the beginning of last year, I moved back to Tartu. I bought an apartment that I renovated over 10 months. And part of that was the shelf I dreamt about before building the last one. For my second shelf, I took my time, saved money, and did some digging to find the right building blocks. Sadly, I don’t yet have the space and tools to build one from scratch. So I did some IKEA hacks and a lot of painting.

A Bookseller’s Bookshelf. Part 2: A Colourful Wall
After years of Pinterest boards, I have finally built my dream home library. It is not perfect – the next one will be. But it’s a good reason to show anyone interested in what the bookshelf of a bookseller and book layout artist looks like and how I got here.
