How to Use Books as Modern Farmhouse Decor

There are tons of budget-friendly modern farmhouse home decor pieces! One of my favorites is books! You can use them in many different ways, such as stacked up horizontally with a vase on top, lined up vertically on a side table, or even tied with twine and a sprig of greenery behind the toilet. They are so versatile and easy to find or DIY! Here are three easy and budget-friendly ways to find books to use as modern farmhouse decor:

1. Purchase for less than $30 at AntiqueFarmhouse.com and Amazon

2. Use your own books around the house

3. Purchase from an antique store or thrift store

1. Purchase for less than $30 at AntiqueFarmhouse.com and Amazon | Click the link (Antique Farmhouse) and search “books” and you will find a great stack of decorative books! It is a great option when you do not have books available at home to use or just want a great stack of decorative books already done! Amazon also has great options for stacks of books that you can personalize! Click the link (Amazon) and you will find a great set of farmhouse books for under $15 that comes with letters to personalize the books if you want and some twine! It is a great DIY purchase!

 

2. Use your own books around the house |  Many of us have tons of already-read books sitting around the house or on a bookshelf. All you need is a few books, flip them upside down and pages forward and you have your own stack of modern farmhouse books to use as decor! You can even remove the cover and bundle them with twine or even add a stem of greenery to enhance the modern farmhouse look. Click the link (Amazon) for some great twine for under $6.

3. Purchase from an antique store or thrift store | My favorite thing about antique stores is the old books they have. The old vibe they give off makes for a perfect modern farmhouse stack of books! I try to find stacks with the same color but you can mix and match too. Each book is usually only a few dollars, and sometimes the books are super interesting reads! Double-check inside them for any forgotten money from the previous owner lol!
