Unique Bookends

Bookend-(dictionary.com): a support placed at the end of a row of books to hold them upright, usually used in pairs.

So I was bored (what's new?) and I was searching book related items on the internet and came across some really cool bookends. So I wanted to share with all my lovely followers what I found! I think they're really cool and if I ever end up buying bookends, these would defiantly be my first choice.

For the Star Wars lovers:                             Batman Vs. Superman:        
 
Pinocchio:                                           Arrows:                             
Fishbowl:                                           Falling books:





I found all of these bookends from the blog: Unusual Things.


I know you guys like Lord of the Rings:       For your flowers:
I found this one here.                                I found this one here.   
 


You guys, aren't these so cool? What really blows me away is the whole multi tasking thing going on with the flowers and fishbowls. Which one is your favorite?

I love all of these, but the fishbowls are pretty cool! I keep telling my husband that when I finally have my own room full of bookshelves, we're going to get all kinds of cool bookends to display as well.

They're all so great - nice finds! I have to say that I like the arrows the best. Right now I have all my books on a shelf that has walls, but I want to get one that doesn't just so I can get some cool bookends!

I'd have a hard time deciding between the Superman/Batman one and the Star Wars one.

Aw man, the Superman vs Batman is pretty clever. But I'd have to say I love the flowers one. Ahem, girly girl talking? Haha.

The fishbowl is cute, and had them before, but I wouldn't do it anymore, just because FYI -- and this is my inner animal cruelty activist talking so forgive me -- I learned that at least a gallon of water is the best option for these beauties! I realized it was a bit cruel to put them in smaller containers. :/ That's just me though.

On a lighter note, I love love this post :D

My favourite is the fishbowl! =)

I think I'd feel too sorry for the little fellow who has to hold up all the "falling books" to want that design in my library!

Oh man I love these bookends! I really like the Superhero one, the arrows and the one of the little guy catching the books! I'll have to get my hands on some!
