Bookends: the secret to great shelfies

Bookends are often overlooked but they are a great way to not only organise your home, but also add essential decorative style to your open shelving. There are a wide variety of book ends, and they are a great way to both express your inner style and to act as a functional way to keep books on your bookshelf. Here at French Knot, we stock a wide variety of book ends in different styles, shapes and colours - so whether you're looking for something more modern or traditional, there is something for everyone.

Creating a Stylish and Functional Display with Bookends

Book ends are a great way to add some personality to your bookshelves, and they're a wonderful way to add style to the more functional parts of your home. At French Knot, we love using book ends to create a stylish bookshelf - for example, pairing them with decorative vessels and photo frames on a large bookshelf in order to add dimension while also maintaining functionality. Bookends are also great for holding books on their own as a centrepiece for mantle pieces or side tables. They're a great way to display a love of reading while also keeping your home curated.

How Bookends will Make Your Life Better

We love using bookends - they really do make a big difference in your home. It's important that the material that you choose is throughout your home - for example, if your home has a French Provincial style it may be a good idea to choose wooden pieces. Similarly, you might choose to use white bookends in the style of aquatic animals for your coastal home. Bookends, whatever style you choose, are an incredibly practical piece. They look great on shelves in every room, and add a touch of timeless style to your home. Make sure to take a look at French Knot's range of bookends here.
