So you already know we're getting a trophy case to show off everything our kids have done over the years. We thought it would be kind of cool to put their yearbooks and what not on top. That means of course that we would need a nice set of decorative bookends. Sounds like finding them would be a pretty simple task right.
Nope! Not even close.
Holy smokes there's a lot of them out there. We had to choose the kind of material we wanted. Wood, marble, brass, cast iron... they were all on the list of possibilities.
Then most importantly, there's the design factor. About the only thing I knew for sure was that we didn't want those flat metal ones that slide under the books and really don't make a statement.
Yup, making a decorative statement was probably priority one.
Well whatever kind of statement you want to make, there's bookends available to make it. Since these were school yearbooks we decided on a scholarly pair that we like best, but we can't buy it yet because we're not exactly sure what trophy case we're getting.
It will be a lot easier to match the bookends to the case rather than the other way around. At least it seems that way to me.
But when you check out my new Squidoo lens and see all the bookends available you may not be so sure anymore.
