Ever since we came across this idea for decorating with books, we've been hunting and scheming for a good way to display a few covers from some of our vintage paperbacks -- all of which were acquired at an awesome thrift store in Ventura, Ca.
Finally, after a few false starts, we were browsing in an Oakland bookstore and saw their solution to our problem: a simple frame, meant to display three photographs.
So, on our next trip to IKEA, we grabbed a suitable frame. Then, we carefully removed the covers from three of our brightest John D. MacDonald paperbacks, framed 'em, and set it on our plate ledge.
