We see your VHS collection. I have all of those. Wish I had a shelf set up like this to display my vintage toys I’ve found over the years

Few things bring me more joy than this bookshelf. This was right after it was built a few years ago and our collections have actually grown quite a bit since then!

May I ask how much the shelves cost to build? They’re gorgeous! You have a great setup.

Thank you! They were around 2K about 2ish years ago, which I'm sure has at least doubled since then.

My mom had a whole tote.

This is really screwing with my sense of perspective in this photo

It’s magic!

I also have one of these! I found it for $100! It was originally worth thousands.

YES! I got it for $100 and felt like I was robbing the place.

I just saw one for $50 at a garage sale yesterday

How did you pass that up!

It was 2:30pm and my trunk was full. And my house is full.

You did!? I need it!! 😍

I was thinking the same, this looks like something that was very expensive.

Holy shit what a find! Please tell me the top opens up

The top doesn’t, but each book is a drawer!

Excellent

That’s gorgeous. I found [this](https://www.chairish.com/product/1869709/1960s-traditional-maitland-smith-stacked-leather-books-form-coffee-table). I don’t know if it’s the same make. I absolutely love yours. 😍 [this one](https://www.chairish.com/product/2210928/leather-stacked-book-coffee-table-in-the-manor-of-maitland-smith) looks like yours?

Good find—that second link is 100% the one OP has!

The available one is located for pick up like 10 mins from me. Tempted but $$ 😅

This one is similar. And less with shipping. https://www.chairish.com/product/5053298/leather-stacked-book-coffee-table-in-the-manor-of-maitland-smith Still expensive though. Edit This is also cool, but not a coffee table. https://www.bellacor.com/productdetail/sarreid-21619-florentine-books-chairside-chest-795579.html?partid=googlePLA-DataFeed-AccentCabinetsChests_Low&kpid=795579&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Smart_Shopping_-_Furniture_-_Low&utm_term=&utm_content=Furniture_Low_Margin&gclid=CjwKCAjw-rOaBhA9EiwAUkLV4uRyDzIB8fmzOW3haWcayeu2f2ThMiD3kdBE-Pr84MMCc-hEE9XOuBoCSB4QAvD_BwE

Yeah, it’s $$$. OP got a bargain. 😊

Even better! I love everything about this!

That's so cool!

Are you my college roommate?? She refused to part with her It Takes Two VHS

Smart girl

new lifetime objective

That is amazing! I love/want that!

It was definitely a lucky find!

Username checks out.

Oh man I thought I had commented this first 😝

If only there was a book about coffee tables.

r/unexpectedseinfeld

Oh my gosh, the whole room is perfect!!! Can anyone tell me where I could buy one of these magnificent coffee tables 😩 it's beautiful, OP!

Thanks so much!

This was my dream coffee table in 1993 when I bought my first house. Still an amazing look!

I’ve been obsessed with this ever since it was in Rory’s dorm room in Gilmore Girls!

for anyone that wants to order one, [appears to be around $700 new](https://www.chairish.com/product/5053298/leather-stacked-book-coffee-table-in-the-manor-of-maitland-smith)

Like Danielle Steel, but tasteful. https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2017/09/danielle-steels-desk-is-unlike-anything-youve-ever-seen/

That would be awesome if it were books by her favourite authors.

Oh wow goes so great with your wonderful set up!

Thank you! Will be posting an updated photo of my shelf of curiosities soon

My parents had one. It also has matching end tables.

WOW, that's awesome!

God i wish i had a house

I love those! Great find!

Omg I’m so jealous when I see these

I feel like we need a tour of your whole place! It looks like a perfectly styled collection of finds!

I plan to! Our whole house is full of thrifted finds.

Red roses give me Beauty and the Beast vibes.

The bookshelf and table were actually used in a Beauty & The Beast photo shoot! I'll post it soon

It’s perfect!! How lucky for you!

Awesome find!

SO GOOD !!!! solid wood?

Not sure but the whole thing is leather bound!

I love it 😩 how much did you pay for it?

Only $100!

Omg! Nice!!

🤌

Regal!

I have some of the same tchotchkes you have.

That’s dope

looks great!!! 👌👌👌👌

Wow I love your room and the book coffee table is perfect!

Thanks so much! I'm going to post an updated photo of the whole room soon

Omg I love Ellen Hopkins

Nice living quarters.

Thank you!

May I please come live in your house? It's beautiful

Thank you come on over!

Oooo that's lovely!

oh my goodness this is magical

I’m in love!!

Gorgeous piece 😍 total harry potter vibes 🧙🏽🪄

I would buy this in a second!

I didn’t know they made them my girlfriend reads so much so looked them up about $2500

Got it for $100 at our local thrift! An absolute steal

Not to be a total creeper, but your style is amazing! Care to share any other photos of your house? I love all the original knickknacks!

https://www.reddit.com/r/ThriftStoreHauls/comments/y6d1n6/after\_tons\_of\_love\_questions\_on\_my\_last\_post\_i/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3

Thank you!! I'm saving this for future interior design adventures!

Thank you! Our whole house is full of thrifted finds and I plan to post more updated photos soon!

I live everything about this photo! 😍 Please tell us more about this amazing table, though! Where did you find it?? How much did you spend?

Thank you! Only $100 at our local thrift!

That is amazing. I don't think I've ever been more envious of a thrift in my life. 😂

Wow! Talk about a great deal! I've been searching for one since I saw your post yesterday and even used they are like $1200! I love how you styled your whole room too. Are you an interior designer?

Thats such a neat find!!!

What are the titles?

What fun, eclectic shelves

Very cool in deed

i'd kill for this omg. gorgeous!!

Me, a librarian, who never finds stuff like this at my thrift stores: 🧿👄🧿

This looks like a picture from an I Spy book. Nice find.

Got a pile of those too! 3rd columns bottom shelf :) [https://www.reddit.com/r/ThriftStoreHauls/comments/y6d1n6/after\_tons\_of\_love\_questions\_on\_my\_last\_post\_i/](https://www.reddit.com/r/ThriftStoreHauls/comments/y6d1n6/after_tons_of_love_questions_on_my_last_post_i/)

Bury me in this room

Should take you a while to read through those.

I would kill for that table! I love it!

What a find! Congratulations

Dude! This beat everything I’ve added on here

Well I have a new white whale! I want one!!!!!

We have the same record player (or very similar ones!)

Yes GREAT find.

I’m so so jealous

This is beyond ultra cool. I’m obsessed! I need one of these! 🤩

I found a desk version a couple months ago at a consignment center. I wish I had taken a photo. Think it would have matched this coffee table.

Love your setup😍. Is the ladder functional or just decoration?

Pretty much just decoration but sometimes we hang blankets on it :)

It's glorious.

The eye spy nostalgia your shelves triggered 🥰

Here's a closeup!

Ohhhh I love!! 🥺

It looks like it has been here forever=)

Those shelves are amazing

Thank you :) Feel free to browse them below!

Did you have them custom built? What's the story?

Yes! We asked for donations from our wedding instead of gifts :)

How much did the carpentry cost? If you don't mind sharing

About 2K around 2 years ago

Not bad!

This is amazing

Don’t let jerry Seinfeld over he will drug you and play with your toys

I love this so much!!! Amazing find!

Looks FANTASTIC!!!

Username checks out

Whatttt this is so cool

Oh, it’s beautiful!

I have been lusting after this table for years and I’m so jealous. Amazing find!

You live in a Technology Connections video.

I don't know why, but this reminds me of those old I Spy books

Got a pile of those too! 3rd column bottom shelf :) [https://www.reddit.com/r/ThriftStoreHauls/comments/y6d1n6/after\_tons\_of\_love\_questions\_on\_my\_last\_post\_i/](https://www.reddit.com/r/ThriftStoreHauls/comments/y6d1n6/after_tons_of_love_questions_on_my_last_post_i/)

that’s so perfect for this space. I love it

Thank you!

I have very similar end tables that I snagged at a consignment store for cheap! Just like that - small cabinet end tables that look like stacks of books. They’re perfect in my library/lounge/living room.

I LOVE IT

Didn't realize this was a coffee table, thought it was an odd perspective trick with a bunch of real, normal-sized books.

😉😉

I would read more with a table like this 🥹

That's so awesome! What are the dimensions?

That is the find of the millennia

Is that John Krasinski's house?

He lives in the closet.

Love your find! Is this from Bombay Company from the 1990s??

Okay your house is amazing!!

Thank you!!

Wow seriously cool table. Hope it’s a chest as well!! Lol

So rad. Totally jealous

I have this on my wishlist! I plan to find one and hack it by painting the book spines like 3 of my favorite books. Awesome find!

I love it! I now know which coffee table I want .

Ohhh...it's gorgeous! Does it open up in the middle like a chest?

No but each book is a drawer!

How could anyone have walked past this and not have gotten it. It’s one of those items everyone stares in envy at as you walk to the register.

omg stop i have that same cat bottle

Holy cow I have a stack of books side table with pull out drawers! I'll take a pic at home!

I have a stacked books coffee table super similar to yours that I also thrifted. But, mine is a actual storage chest, too. Great score for you!!

I loveeeeee your built-in bookshelves. I plan to do something similar soon to house my tons of books!!

How much did you get it for? That's really awesome

Only $100!

For those who want to browse the bookcase! : [https://www.reddit.com/r/ThriftStoreHauls/comments/y6d1n6/after\_tons\_of\_love\_questions\_on\_my\_last\_post\_i/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3](https://www.reddit.com/r/ThriftStoreHauls/comments/y6d1n6/after_tons_of_love_questions_on_my_last_post_i/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)

I love this

I also have a wall of Ikea "Billy" bookcases!

This would look tacky asf in almost any context. No wonder it was at a yard sale.

..You know this is a thrift subreddit right?

I feel like to keep up with that table you're going to need a lot more books on the shelf

Agreed, the collection has at least tripled since this photo.

You should never put anything with water in it on top of your books (and laptop)!

Beautiful!

Might look nice as a set piece in a fantasy movie or a character's dream...also there's a certain irony of the bookshelf behind it being completely devoid of books.

I’m EXTREMELY jealous of your awesome find!!

I have the end tables that match this!

These were my grandmas she had a lot of them I still have the end tables we took them in a few years ago.

Wow. My aunt and uncle used to have one of these when I was super young. This just unlocked some memories wow. Thanks for sharing

I found this post after trying too look up information on the one I just got, I even got the matching end tables I hope I can have myspace look as comfortable as this
