Reading: it’s fundamental. Cactuses? Not so much, unless maybe you’re a desert. But combining these two unlikely companions is the Babyletto Cactus Bookcase from West Elm. It’s a bookcase that looks like cactus. Obviously, if you don’t fill the entire thing with western novels about cowboys, you’ve done it all wrong.
The powder-coated steel bookcase is finished in sage green and measures 48″ tall, 31″ wide, and 8″ deep, with eight individual cubbies for storing books and toys. Or, in my case, snacks. As I always say, even a great book without a snack is hardly worth reading.
Don’t already have a western-themed library? What better way to get it started? Personally, I’ve always wanted an old west-inspired reading room and was finally making my dream a reality when my wife caught me trying to lead the horses inside and put an end to that plan real quick. Like even faster than the fastest gunslinger quick.
