An end table bookshelf is a lovely addition to any living room or bedroom, particularly for book lovers. Whether you have a lot of books and you don't know where to put them, or you've been hidden away all your favorite classic and want to show them off instead, this style of bookshelf is a great way to solve your problem. Since there are so many styles available, it can be tough knowing which one is right for you, so let's have a look at the most popular designs you may come across.
There are different shapes, styles, and designs of end table bookshelves to choose from, each having a set of characteristics that complement different decorating styles.
Square bookshelf
A medium height bookshelf which is square in size will fit well in a contemporary home but can adapt to many different surroundings. A square bookshelf can easily fit in a corner too, so you can choose whether you want it nicely tucked away in some free space or you want it to be next to your sofa or alongside another table or piece of furniture. This style may have 6-8 thin shelves or 3-4 deeper shelves which allow you to store larger books.
Rotating end table bookshelf
An interesting way to keep all your books in the right place, a rotating bookshelf adds a lot of character to the room while making it easy for you to access your favorite novels whenever you like. Some bookshelves in this style have a mechanism which allows you to sit back and let the shelf rotate for you. Others can be turned manually, which is often more suitable and convenient for homeowners.
Cube shelves
If you're looking for something modern and up to date, cubes are a great design to look at. They are available as a one-piece bookshelf which fits together in a rectangular or square overall shape to fit comfortably in many different areas of the home. Alternatively, you can opt for the 3-2-1 style which has three cubes on the floor, two cubes on top of that and then finally one at the very top. This is a modern style but can take up unnecessary space if you have a small or compact home.
Diagonal bookshelf
An end table bookshelf in a contemporary style isn't difficult to find, but there can sometimes be so many available that it's tough to make a choice. Arguably one of the most attractive contemporary styles of a bookshelf is the diagonal style, which has a sloping piece and 2-3 small shelves to allow you to store your books. This style of bookshelf isn't the most suitable if you have a lot of books to store, but is convenient for a few books, some magazines and paperwork, and there is even a small coffee table which you can pull out to rest your drinks or plate.
A natural look can be quite easily achieved by getting creative with DIY and industrial styles. Barrels, for example, can be upcycled and either painted or sanded for a more natural look. This can then form the base of a bookshelf since you can shape it however you like and affix shelves which are a size of your choice.
