Meet the Wisdom Tree, a bookshelf that looks like a Christmas tree and works like an ambient lamp

Posted on by

The name Wisdom Tree is perhaps the most apt for this bookshelf. Books impart knowledge, and when you’ve got a book-rack modeled on the shape of an evergreen tree, what better name could you possibly think of?! Meet the Wisdom Tree… it’s part bookshelf, part ambient-light. It illuminates your books and your space with a warm glow, while providing up to 5 storage racks for your current-reads. The shelf’s angular platforms let you stack the books open and face down, so you don’t really need a bookmark. Just lift up your book and begin reading from the page you’re on. Made by the same guys who designed the wonderful Bookniture series, each Wisdom Tree is made from birch plywood and is carefully assemble with build in USB powered warm white LED light.

Woodieful’s one talented little piece of furniture. The ‘a’shaped (or ‘e’ shaped, depending on how you see it) piece of wood can be used as a stool, coffee table, magazine rack, bookshelf, and an umbrella holder! Its style is in the way its shaped, giving it a simple, clean aesthetic that will make it blend in with any type of decor. That’s really the best kind of furniture, to be honest! I could go on and on about the Woodieful, but I’d rather you see it for yourself. So scroll away, my friend!

Let the Books be Hanged!

Looking for a creative and appealing way to free up some space in your house? The all-new hanging book rack will allow you to do just that, or at least to get rid of your current bookshelves and racks, and give a unique appeal to your drawing room. You can hang up to twelve books along the wall, giving you a fresh perspective on space management. The strings that hang from the rack are wax-cottoned, and can act as bookmarks, too. You can either hang and display the books like in a normal book shelf, or swivel them a bit to display their titles; and if you adjust the position of the wooden plates, books can be uniformly hung in a straight line. With tons of varieties and wood types to choose from, the hanging book racks are sure to add some flair to your home. Available at Etsy in two variants – the MINI for $110 and the Standard for $210.
