One for the Books

While browsing at Crate&Barrel this weekend, I noticed that a lot of their furniture set-ups include books covered in plain, kraft paper. This reminded me of an episode of "Room Service," during which host/designer Sarah Richardson covered what must've been hundreds of the homeowners' books. She used a pretty cream-colored paper and then adhered labels to each and every one of the books.

I think this might be a cool project for the living room or guest room — where we keep a handful of books — but couldn't imagine doing this for an entire room.
