Add small plants to your bookcase
This works exceptionally well if you have a larger bookcase such as this one from Art Sample Home. This industrial modern bookcase would make an awesome statement piece and can hold many books and decor items. Plants are perfect for adding that lively and unique touch to your bookcase. If you’re not into the maintenance that comes with real plants, artificial ones are fine too!

Add stacks of vintage books
Instead of the traditional way of placing books upright, you can add style by stacking them flat. Separate the stacks in a visually pleasing way, with other decor items in between them. Vintage books look great when using this decor style because they add that classic antique feel. Stack 3-4 books on top of each other, and then you can place a decor item on top fo the stack if you wish, such as a small plant or knick-knack.
