Hi! My name is Leonie and I am a 26 year old girl from the Netherlands who loves talking about books! From YA to non-fiction to classics, I read it all (although fantasy will always be my fave).

leonie for every shelf: "add a little plant"
And a little candle 🕯️
Add a little lamp
Add a decaying banana
Add -half a dozen Funko Pops- a cute little poster
And (say it with me) "LET YOUR BOOKS BREATH!"
am i the only one who loves the crowded bookshelves? I dont think they need to breathe, i love that they're kinda messy and overflowing :D
I think that type of bookshelves can be a little overwhelming
Same, I love crowded shelves
I agree. I love seeing my shelves filled with up-right standing books, especially if there's multiple series in a row that are completed or just a full shelf of oneshot books.
As someone with crouwded shelves... yeah, I like the crowded shelves! I think its pretty to have trinkets and such, but at the end of the day, my bookshelves are for books so they usually get ousted to make space for more stories.
I adore bookshelves entirely packed with neatly ordered, spine-out books. Not messy or with vertical piles or trinkets in the way or anything like that, just "basic" rows of books with their spines all lined up neatly, filling every shelf.
Leonie quote of the day: "treat your books like an emotionally unavailable date; give them space"
I think you’re seeing a lot of “apartment white” walls. In America you can’t paint your walls in apartments and they are almost always a vanilla white, and in medium light they can look a little greenish.
Even if you repaint them before you leave ?
@@Aisuzunisometimes you can barter with the landlord but most of the time yes they prefer you to leave it alone
@@callmethebreeze2934 What a shame. My bedroom’s walls are turquoise and brown (kinda like Jeff de Bruges), I would be sad with just white
@@Aisuzuni Yeah, it think it's sad. You really can underestimate how much making a space your own can rely on how you customize the walls.
You beat me to it - yes, I think the lighting in the photos just make them look a different shade but I assume all those walls are just variations on white. Painted walls in many places is the privilege of homeowners.
I personally LOVE an overstuffed bookshelf, probably because I've always dreamt of living in an old library or a used bookstore. 🤓❤ I find the fullness of it cozy and inviting.
Whoever is bookshelf number five that was described as chaotic I’m so envious of you! It’s the clutter I strive for, a great ratio of trinkets and books. Love how there is random room at the end of the shelves to stuff what you want.
Hey leo! I got a video idea for you "can i guess the book title based on their 1 star or 5 star reviews?"
This is such a great idea!
as a swede i recognize the first white shelf as a Hemnes bookshelf, and not a Billy bookshelf. ikea brainrot
And i’m pretty sure the second shelf(ves) are actually billy bookshelves but in the oak coloration
My second comment I know but when she said: “this is not a bookshelf, this is a funko pop display,” she reminded me so much of Daniel Greene it was genius
I stopped following Daniel Green when he started making fun of people who own Funko Pops.
Your bad, I'd say 😅
@@girlwithoutpearlearring Actually, bullies are bad. I'm just ignoring internet toxicity.
@@nonabgo Ok we can all tell who has literally never been bullied before, upset that someone makes jokes about people who own funko pops??! I am getting second hand embarrassment from reading this, you must be baiting or something
@@MultiArtStyleTWT Pretty sure I don't care about your opinion.
I organize by genre but that always looks like I've organized by color. Romance is normally pink/red/pastels. Horror/Thriller is normally black. Historical fiction is black and yellow.
You never have to get rid of books! Books don't need to breathe, they need to be read! I love every bookshelf that has books, whether half-filled or overflowing.
Instead of buying new bookshelves, especially if you have the Billy ones, you could also resort to round the edges with black colored wood or maybe crochet something to alter the form. There are lots of ways to alter them in a way that makes them more personalized and not as common! Added bonus: you wouldn't need to pay half a liver for new shelves.
Yes!! I removed the back from mine and put them in front a coloured wall. It looks amazing and not at all ikea-y!
for sure! I also took the backs off mine and I'm considering painting them to look more like wood but that's a bit more of a labour intensive project haha
I moved recently and got dark wooden bookshelves (also Billy just not white) and my old white Billy got a mid life career change and is now a kitchen shelf.
Not the Billy bookshelf slander! I actually like them because I feel like they make books stand out more, while brown shelves kind of blend in with the books.
Anyone with any open shelf space on their bookshelf is astonishing to me. I don’t think I’ve had an open inch on my book shelf… ever. Breathing room who?
Loved this; seeing real book shelves, rather than Pinterest and Instagram-perfect shelves is refreshing! Hope you’ll do more of these!
yeah, i have 492 books in my room, space? what is she? I have 2 more books coming as well.
also: I dont get not liking white shelves? mine are white and pink, fits with my soft girly room better than dark colors ever would.
your current bookshelves resemble mine. the white bookshelves with books shoved everywhere bc lack of space. + random trinkets scattered about.
coming to say as someone who has painted my walls that light greenish colour i do lowkey regret it, it feels very cold, so id recommend getting it slightly darker and very warm toned
Wow I am too early...time to find a job🙂
me too brother :)
I have a job and yet here I am 😅
I have work to do😅😂
Same
I’m moving soon as well and this vid motivates me to make my shelves even MORE witchy and atmospheric (also your dress has the vibe of the vintagy Dutch Delfts Blauw porcelain and I love it)
OMG THE LAST BOOK STACK WAS MY BOOK STACK, I CAN'T BELIEVE LEO SAW MY BOOKS. I DIED DEAD AND I'LL TAKE YOUR ADVISE. LOADS OF LOVE ❤❤❤
I personally find it very asthetic when it's looking all over the place and cluttered :))♡ That combined with a huuuuuuuge bookshelve aaaaah
this was so fun! I love seeing other people's bookshelves and how they decorate them and give them character ✨
Love your videos! And I love crowded, but organised, bookshelves. I think it's a waste of space not having books every single inch of the bookshelf 😂😂😂
Total chaos reigns in my flat. Books stacked on the floors, in fact anywhere there is a flat surface.
I cant believe that my bookshelf appears in this video 😂
Which one is yours lmao😂
I don't have a bookshelf and I'm an e-reader. I have a couple of books in my cabinet. I may not have a sense of aesthetics, but I only care about the content of my books anyway :D
my book shelf aesthetic rn is I ran out of space and I can't get another bookshelf so I'm just going to organize best on how it fits in the space. You can tell because I have a regency romance series sitting on top of my Nancy drew books because that is how it fit on the books shelf. oh yes and random trinkets everywhere. I also have a shelving unit that was in my closet that just has all my shadowhunter books on them. it used to be organized alphabetically when I had space
The white Billy bookcases are outdated?? They're my dream bookcases for when I move into a house where I can have a library hahahah
Omg please do more of these. I just got a bookshelf and would love some tips and tricks
I can't wait to watch the decorating vlogs, you had such good inputs, I literally noted down almost everything, the salt tealight lamps, the mushroom battery powered lamps, the fake potions. Love all of it!!
A good topic Leonie for discussion. Sometimes a bookshelf describes the person's personality & overall exposure to different topics even if they don't know how to read a book😀. The same is applicable for game & movie collection. The last time I made a proper book shelf was during my school years. Now I have a small bookshelf for design books & catalogues since I am a designer.
I have to say, I'm living for your outro - the song, the ghibli (?) picture, it creates such a lovely atmosphere. Just know that at the end of every video I'm sitting there, doing a little dance and singing along to the melody :)
OTHER PEOPLE “ uhh my home library is so messy “ me “ my home library dose not exists “ ( it’s one box in a big shelve 😅
❤❤❤ love you Leo!
Mine are very judge-worthy. Thanks to not having much room, very chaotic.
I just bought a white bookshelf from target and thought it was adorable 😭 I got into reading (book collecting if we’re being honest) two years ago and had no idea those shelves were outdated. Time to thrift new ones and give the new ones to my brother it seems😂
Edit: I will be keeping my shelves I was just being silly!! I just respect Leonie’s opinions so I was making a joke!
If you love your white shelves I don't think you should give them away, It doesn't matter if it's seen as outdated or not, if you love it then you love it and that's great! But also if you do want new ones, good for you (and your brother who will get them xD)!
if you think they’re cute, why get new ones? it’s your space
yeah, don't let anyone tell you what's pretty and what isn't, the most important part is that YOU love your shelves!
Dated, in or out of style, cool, not cool - those are subjective and totally irrelevant to what you should love. If you love it, it's adorable, it's perfect, it's right for you. And remember, whatever is "in style" now will someday be OUT of style. Just think of yourself as ahead of the game, when white bookshelves are back in. Or better yet, don't give a crap about what other people think and love what you love. To quote Pee-Wee Herman - "I'm a rebel Dottie!"
This was so much fun, thank you. It actually gives me ideas for how to decorate a new bookshelf once I reorganize my room.
Leonie getting so into slagging off other people's bookshelves 😂😂😂
You should do this after having a few glasses of wine.
all these bookshelf’s are beautiful in their own way 🥹🥹
The way I had a double-take at 6:12 when I saw Dreamcatcher’s Dear my youth on the top shelf. I love how well it fits in with the books!
Same!! So nice to see insomnias among leonie's subscribers
I have a passion for books, I love them so much. Always been a loner in my life, books are my best friends...they are a voice that reaches out to me like a familiar colleague from the past. They don't judge, they don't criticize, they just share their ideas and they are there whenever i want. I know it makes me look a bit like a loser, but honestly my bookshelves are my biggest pride in the home...i dust them and maintain them regularly...people say i don't have friends but i disagree...i am surrounded by friends!!
Why do you sound like an ai😂😂😂😂
I mean this is cute and all, but it also seems quite sad. Do you have NO friends? Like not even one or two actual human friends? I like reading also, but I also do have a single friend I talk to. It just sounds so lonely saying I am "surrounded by friends" and just talking about books.
@@louyou6614 Lol sorry!
@@efinah2305 I am not lonely and it isnt sad, i can have friends but i dont want to, i rather spend my time reading...it is a choice i make. Actually i do have a friend, my dog loves when i read to her =D
@@sew_gal7340 Oh, well that doesn't seem too bad then I guess.
"i'm looking at my copy of the starless sea: she is. NOT. alive.". I think I died with her at that Leonie 😭
Giving more space to books is a good tip in theory, but you also need the space for more shelves in your place
my entire wall is just books and let me tell ya.. it sucks in terms of dust!!!
Please do another one of these videos so I can send you my bookshelf & let you criticize it! 😍 you had so many great ideas! 🥰
Watching this video has me excited for your moving and decor vlog!!!
I discovered you through your secondary chanel and I really love your vibe !! Your videos are peaceful and nice to watch/listen to. Can't wait to see what you're going to do with your appartment 😄
17:00
I actually love this one it's probably my favourite out of all of them :] Even though there's so many books, they are still organised and i love the "chaotic" stacking✨️
I love that you got that idea from
Daniel, I love to watch his bookshelf judging vids and now watch it on your channel!!!!❤️❤️
Omg yesss plants everywhere 😍 loved how that was your main takeaway. Add plants and lighting
Sometimes it's not about buying a new shelf, it's more about letting some books go. Because I sure have the money to buy another shelf, but I dont have the space to put it at, AND I do not have the money to live in a bigger flat. I love the concept of this video tho.
Thank you Leonie! You really inspired me to decorate my bookshelf!! I love ur tips!❤
17:03 i GASPED this is so pretty im in LOVE
I really like books that are not breathing ❤ crowded bookshelves look more like bookshelves and less like display ❤
You said you can't be mean yet this is the meanest one I've seen😭
That first bookshelf - I can see the danmei!!!🤣
your videos are so comforting 🤍
The first bookshelf had danmei!! love it already!
it’s my bookshelf, so thank you 🥰 but i do need more of them…
I feel like she keeps saying, "You clearly have the money for another bookshelf." But sometimes the issue isn't money, but space.
I love ur vids ssooooo much its so hard to be that one friend who’s like “Have you read this book?nd this book? And this one?"
The Duolingo Owl make me laugh so hard (My shelf was not here, but I want more plants now)
omg i hope this becomes a mini series.. i love your taste in decor and seeing everyones organization styles
I decided not to share mine since I had put a lot of my history books into books, leaving this massive gap on the one shelf, which were subsequently filled halfway with textbooks and some of my classics.
But my shelf was made by my dad and I a few years back. I have my CD collection on it. My books are generally split by author, it may look like a scatterbrain went loose but there's a method to my madness
Loved watching this, it was so entertaining also now I am so excited to see what your new bookshelves will look like 🤭
Leoni you are such a pleasure to watch! You have been an inspiration to me lately in many aspects, and i wish you all the best in life!!
"If you have the money to buy special editions, you have the money to buy another shelf." - Money, maybe. Space to put another shelf? That's a different story altogether. We don't all live in huge houses.
Now I want you to see and judge my little bookshelf 😂 (no really I hope you do another one of these)
So I did a fun thing when reorganising my bookshelves this year, I put all my to read books on 2 shelves (lmao help) and chose the shelves that are like at the right height for me to grab. So the middle of my bookshelf has been changing quite a lot but I love it, it’s so handy. I’ve also got a section for books that I have read this year so I can see my progress and can sort through which ones I want to keep at the end of the year ✌️
That is super cool!😊👏🏻💖
Please do a part 2 Leonie! Would love to see this as a series, it's so fun and helpful 💗
My bottom shelf is a graveyard of duplicate books, broken ones, old college stuff and boxes
That stuffed rainbow shelf is my dreammm
Haha I'm so early this time! I love judging bookshelves, it's my favourite kind of Daniel Green video, so glad to see someone else do it!
Daniel greene's 'roasting your bookshelves' videos were some of my favourites, so I'm so gonna gobble yours up
I really need to save money and finally overhaul the whole furniture in my room. I dream of a huge corner wardrobe so I can have wall space for a giant bookshelf with a hidden vanity in between. My books (and kpop albums) need SPACE 😫
me actually going to count all my special editions to see what percentage of them I've read. I'm glad to say I've actually read 84% of them :D
You had good advice and you weren't terribly judgy. Good on you. What I got most from your narrative is how subjective bookshelf style can be. I'm the opposite of "let them breath" - I look at bookshelves that aren't primarily all books and think of all that wasted space! I wonder if they really read or if they just like to use books as decor. Admittedly, my shelves are too full, literally overflowing onto the ground, but I still prefer the aesthetics of a bookshelf that's 80-90% books.
YOOOO love these types of videoss pls do more heheh (ps: love ur content in generall!!!!!! thanks for making literature even more interesting)
Thank you, Leonie. I enjoyed the analyses and have some new ideas! ❤
I'm sharing my bookshelf with my mom, because we both love to read and both have a huge book collection.
I can't wait for the day I can have an actual book shelf, my books are all crammed and stuffed into random places all over my room just wherever they'll fit :')
I love this.
The thoughts on people's bookshelves.
I want a bookshelf so badly.
I'm just not able to yet.
I love your videos and the personnality you show in your videos. They are so comforting and it feels like we're listening to a friend. Keep going!
Loved this video! ❤ Need a part 2 please 🙏🏼 (maybe including a section where you design mini bookshelves for different aesthetics would be fun too)
love this, please make it a series (obv only if you want to)
Psychoanalyzing a person's bookcase/book displays! Yes! Have you ever seen a bookshelf with a fish tank on it? Or a hamster's enclosure? There's gotta be someone whose pet fish or hamster or rat or chinchilla or guinea pig shares real estate with books.
Feel free to do a part two to this video with some of the other submissions you received, I loved watching this!
6:47 i'm both a bookworm and a kpop fan, and seeing a fellow somnie, especially in a book related video makes me so happy 🥹🫶
9:45 I recognize this because I do the same thing! The ones that aren’t organized by color are series!
Please do a part two. I love thiss❤
I have hoarding in my family, and I have the gene, so I dont own any books for my mental health. Minimalism was rough at first, but honestly, I feel so much happier in my place now.
I am an avid library book and Kindle reader now. I love all the bookshelves people have. It's fun to see even if I dont have one for myself.
Witch hat atelier manga spotted! I know Leonie doesn't read manga but this one I feel like is the perfect introduction for a fan of fantasy it's just so whimsical and gorgeous.
Fun video! And a lot of inspiration for my own bookshelves. First up - get rid of my DVDs and BlueRays. I haven't watched a single one in 5+ years. Then my books can BREATHE. I love the idea of some pretty lights to warm up the area. And plants.
12:25
"this....(scribble with distain)....pisses me off"
im dead xD
Personally I like white bookshelves as they go with my mostly pink apartment decor ^^
I love the Billy bookshelves, they're my favs loll
Leonie: Why are these shelves different lengths?
Me: One of us! One of us!
Also now I NEED fake candles for my book shelf.
- Leo, I’m dying!
- Add some fake candles and a little plant!
Leonie: talks about the outdated bookshelves from
2016
Me: girl I just bought the exact same ones last month 😅😅
THE QUEEN POSTED 👑
I don’t have a bookshelf because I don’t buy them I just get them from the library… and the books I bought there’s like 20.
leonie would HATE my bookshelves LMAO
this was so entertaining!!
