Spectrum bookshelves

I present evidence (more as proof for Trevor, who still complains about ours, above) that arranging bookshelves by colour is cool.  Not overly functional, but really, really, cool.

Via here, here and here.

New for the crafty bookshelf

I picked up this sewing book on the weekend.  I don't do a lot of sewing, but a book like this that has lots of projects for around the house is inspiring.  (And it's refreshing to see a nicely designed book on sewing as well...those pattern books at the fabric store look scary sometimes!)
