F.A.Q.
What are the standard dimensions of a bookshelf?
Bookshelves can come in many different shapes, sizes, and styles. The standard bookshelf dimensions follow a typical range:
Shelf spacing: 9 to 12 inches
Shelf depth: 10 to 12 inches
Shelf width: 30 to 40 inches
When choosing a bookshelf, check the product specifications to ensure it fits your space. Consider placement, aesthetics, and available space. Do you want a freestanding unit or a wall-mounted unit? Freestanding bookshelves can be simple stacked cubes, open-backed cases, or even ladder-style. Due to their weight, wall-mounted or floating shelves are typically single boards secured to the wall with brackets.
Should you anchor your bookshelf?
Yes, especially if you have pets or small children at home, it’s best to secure your freestanding bookshelf to the wall for safety reasons. Some bookshelves are low enough to the ground or have a unique design — like a split or v-shaped ladder format — that helps keep them stable.
How do you decorate your bookshelf?
Bookshelf decorating is a fun way to display your favorite books and decor items. When you’re decorating your bookshelf, try to keep things simple. Filling the shelves with too many knickknacks can make it messy.
Remember the rule of three: Arrangements in groups of three give a good balance without overwhelming the eye.
Organize by height: Taller decor should be placed nearer the back of the shelf, with shorter items in front.
Choose a color scheme: Too many colors can look messy, so keep it simple. You might like to work with one tone or mix and match two to three complementary shades.
