The Lauren Conrad 'Bookshelf Box' is a deceptive way to hide or store items within the home or office. It's a simple do-it-yourself project that is sure to give any abode a sophisticated look.
Conrad has launched a blog providing girls with beauty and lifestyle tips that are affordable. To put this box together all that is needed is an empty squared box, some old textbooks and some glue. The textbook spines are needed to create the effect. The whole idea is to make it appear as if it's a stack of books, as opposed to just a box.
Unfortunately, this project has gotten backlash, as Conrad destroyed a set of Lemony Snicket books; however, it is still a great way to re-purpose old materials.
