Check out what I found late one night while I was aimlessly surfing the net! I love the idea of a rotating book shelf.

Want to change the decor of your room? Just spin it to a new side!

Need a quick clean up? Stash the mess on one side and spin it out of sight!

Just want a cool place to keep your books and knick knacks? Sit back and admire.

Inmod.com has this great piece and one day I’ll get it … one happy day.

If you have read my blog before, you already know that I love pieces that look great even when they are not being used. For example, I purchased these lovely, mosaic vases at target.com with no intention of ever putting anything in them. I used one as a bookend and the other as an accent on my sofa table. Then, one day a friend, who I have not seen in a while, paid me a surprise visit and brought flowers as a gift. I don’t normally keep flowers in my house becasue my two cats keep mistaking the flowers for their afternoon snack, so I didn’t have a flower vase handy - or so I thought. I took one of my mosaic vases (the ones that I don’t use as vases), and discovered that they look just as amazing with flowers in them! Imagine that!
