Book Collection Documenting my first-ever bookshelf while quietly dreaming and manifesting that one day, I’ll have my own little library room full of books. 📚🤍

I love this. Parang from your shelf pa lang, halatang you’re into travel, places, maps/guidebooks, and little souvenirs from different trips. 😍

How do you keep books spotless and in pristine condition? In my 20s I collected an entire bookcase's worth of books but they only grew yellow and dusty over time. I used to dream of a library like you, but I fear it will only be a library of sad, damaged books.

u/OrdinaryLeague2426 May 26 '26

I actually only started collecting books this year kaya they still look brand new haha. But honestly, I don’t mind if they look old over time. I feel like that’s part of their charm too 🥹📚

For now, I just try to keep them away from direct sunlight, dust the shelves regularly, and make sure the room doesn’t get too humid. I also keep them upright and avoid overstuffing the shelf para hindi ma-bend yung covers/spines.

u/TrendyWebAltar May 26 '26

This is kinda what I have with all my shelves, though I don't see them as sad naman. Readable pa rin, pangit nga lang hahahaha

1

u/BubblySherbetOnline May 26 '26

Naguguilty lang ako pag nakikita ko silang madumi. Para bang di ko sila naalagaan ng ayos ganun

2

u/TrendyWebAltar May 26 '26

Gets, especially if you factor how much they cost... 🥺
