Unusual Bookends

As seen on Pinterest.

Some are DIY, some are ideas copied from other places, and some are made to order on ETSY.

Do you use bookends?

Some of those are pretty neat. I have a set my parents used to have. My dad got them while overseas when he was in the Air Force.

It's an carved wood old man sitting on books with the bottom & back made with books & he's also holding a book. My dad must have got these in the 60's. He also got the wooden fruit/wooden fruit bowl back then plus other things I now have.

When I was in high school, my grandmother, who lived in Western Colorado, discovered bookends in a small rock shop near the Colorado-Utah state line. This area is a geological paradise. They had bookend made from really cool rocks found in the area. I got some made of petrified dinosaur bone. For years, for every giftable occasion, we all got bookends. I hardly have books anymore. I guess they can hold up my Kindle.

I love this. I have something similar on the bookcase in my bedroom. My inspiration was a photo very much like this one that I saw a few years ago.

Lots of cute ideas here. :-)

I have a huge number of books. There's no room for bookends.

I like the creativeness and I like some of them

I still have hardcover books and use bookends
