Anyway, this is something similar but with a different new look. The middle book looks as if it’s really floating. And, yes, they’re made with real books. Rather than real vintage books, the creator printed the cover of the vintage books and glue them onto any books of the same thickness instead. It’s actually quite hard to find vintage books with the same length. Then, the pages are cut out to allow a wooden board to fit across the 3 books. That’s the magic behind it.

The creator coincidentally has two shelves set up side by side between a window. So, she took advantage of it. The shelf really looks amazing. Not only it allow you to see through what’s on it. The glass transparency also doesn’t obstruct the window view. So, it matches perfectly with the default interior design of the house.
