Who says books need to be stacked in a long cabinet with glass doors in that nook there? Books have long been used as 'fillers' on the modest (and sometimes lifeless) shelves of most spaces. They can add color, character and a lot of interesting reads for your spare time. For those who want to flaunt their books in living and common areas, bookends are almost God-sent. Sure, there are various heavy objects that could double up as bookends, but honestly, are they just as beautiful?? Find out for yourself!
'Book End' Bookends
For those who want to spell it out, the BOOK END bookends do their job stylishly well without any intention of challenging your intelligence! Made from either silver or white spray painted metal these bookends are ideal for minimalist interior spaces and are quite reasonable priced at $30.
Giraffe Bookends
Some metal, some nature and a neutral black. This set of solid steel, handmade bookends are designed by Knob Creek Metal Arts. Available at $65, it is an ideal fit for rooms filled with beautiful colors! (Great for jungle themed kids rooms too!)
Bookworm Bookends
Literally have your head in a book most of the time? Know someone like that? This hilariously designed Bookworm Bookend is a cute reminder of the bookworms we know and love! Designed by Rob Southcott in Toronto, this bookworm bookend (like its counterparts) is very hard to find and is slowly getting extinct :(
Zuny Animal Bookends
These super cute handmade animals can be used to hold up most heavy items to act as a bookend, CD/DVD stand, or even as a door stopper.

Fish Bowl Bookends
There's nothing fishy about these bookends! These fish bowl halves can be used as a decor piece, fishbowl or vase. A great way to spruce up an old desk, they are available at roughly $60 for a set. Considering that they need to be maintained if you have fish in there, these maybe a little inconvenient.
