Books grouped by color can be a great way to style a bookshelf and add a punch of color into the decor of a room. (To preserve functionality try to keep similar subjects together or do this only with books you don't really need to access that often)
Magazines with a colored spine (like the O Magazine, InStyle, and House Beautiful) can create a beautiful rainbow effect. Colored files can help visually separate things out into categories (red for 'legal', orange for 'home', etc) and let you find documents more quickly.
Clothing and shoes arranged by (type then by) color allows you to see what you have and makes it easier and more enjoyable to pick out an outfit.
Do you like to color code/arrange things by color?
Til next time!

Few things make me as happy as my color coordinated closet hehe
I'll admit that I color coordinate my closet, but it isn't that hard to keep up, it basically goes white, tan, grey, black. :)
great idea to organize the bookshelves with the colors....

Oh Ariana, this makes me so happy...wishing my closets and bookcases looked just like this...amazing!!
I <3 this! I can't wait to try this out with the books in my library. My closet has been fun, but Paloma has taken colors to a different level.
Fabulous,

This post is just amazing. I do love the color coding, but more so than that I just love the organization. If I could get my closet organized like this I just know I would have so much fun getting dressed in the morning!
After reading this post and seeing the beautifully color coded bookshelf, i decided to color code my built in bookshelves and they look AMAZING!! I definitely need a few more yellow, purple and green books ;-D but thank you for the inspiration! xo
