Bookshelves With Pizazz

To better showcase your knick-knacks, treasured keepsakes, and collectibles, paint the inside of bookcases, armories, etc. with a color which complements your collection. According to your own taste, use a vibrant color to add visual interest or choose a deeper shade of the paint in the room where it sits. Black is always good for a dramatic impact. The background draws attention to your books, collectibles, etc. Paint only the back and side walls, not the shelves. Wallpaper will also do the same thing.
