For all of this disorganization (I swear I used to be a very organized person, but then parenthood), I’m a sucker for a bookish rainbow shelfie (those Penguin drop caps tho) or an artfully designed bookcase with books, momentos, and Funkos. This is why I love Instagram. I can literally spend hours scrolling through the pictures and screenshotting pics for inspiration. The amount of time I spend on Instagram looking for bookstagram feeds is obscene. (But if you ask me why I have no time, I’ll tell you I have no clue). Here are some of my favorite bookstagrams accounts I’ve found for shelfie and bookish inspiration.
A post shared by Emily Sweet (@sweetbookobsession) on Aug 18, 2017 at 8:55pm PDT @sweetbookobsession has a great eye for color and design—it was a hard choice picking which photo of hers to put in this post.
A post shared by Emily 🇦🇺 (@emilyjmead) on Aug 4, 2017 at 5:28am PDT @emilyjmead has constructed a feed that is calming to look at, and her pastel game is especially strong.
A post shared by Elle’s books (@theartfulelle) on Jul 27, 2017 at 9:18am PDT @theartfulelle’s feed is clean and smart, and she often pairs her books with coffee, which I love—because what goes better with books than coffee? I mean…nothing, right?
A post shared by Jenna Strack (@jennastrack) on Apr 4, 2017 at 5:57am PDT @jennastrack is German, so I can’t understand any of her captions, but I absolutely love the way she pairs Funkos and candles with her books and bookshelves. As someone who’s also new to the Funko thing, I especially appreciate this. (Yes, I know—I don’t know where I’ve been, besides the muck of new parenthood).
A post shared by Booksugar (@booksugar) on Aug 7, 2017 at 6:32am PDT I think Penguin has some of the best design out there, book-wise, and this post by @booksugar perfectly captures that. Her feed is artfully curated, and she even has a feed for kids’ books, @booksugarkids.
A post shared by Gina #giibooks (@giibooks) on Aug 13, 2017 at 8:27am PDT @giibooks posts super cute pics of books, Funkos, and delightfully nerdy things—as well as her adorable dog, Hermione. Seriously, I could study her pics forever.
@bookswrotemystory pairs books with candles, Funko, bookmarks, and really great color palettes. Her feed feels like a refreshing drink of water. Where do you look for shelfie or bookish inspiration?
