I can only find my books by having a vague idea of the colour of their spines, if I had to face them to the wall I'd feel like I'd told them all off and sent them to the naughty step.<br /><br />I'm not really a fan of colour-blocking either except in little piles like on my bureau. I like all an author's books to be together if possible. 😃Sue https://www.blogger.com/profile/04947919568474743963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501869780961229827.post-66334509989863848162020-12-09T01:01:04.754+00:002020-12-09T01:01:04.754+00:00OMG that Welsh cupboard is gorgeous.
