How to add excitement to a bookcase

I love bookcases-
decorating them is an added bonus
but not all bookcases are gorgeous to start out-

Many of us have the standard dorm room or 1st apartment
bookcases, the one you add to your children's rooms
to collect their childhood books and
as they grow, the bookcase changes-
many things are added and many removed-
but
unless they are filled to the brim-
they are plain and a bit boring-
As I was perusing Pinterest-
a daily task-lol
I have seen many of those plain, dull bookcases come to life-

Wallpaper, wrapping paper, paint, scrapbook paper,
vinyl, stencils, and tin ceiling tiles
are some ways to bring them to life-
Here are a few I loved...
