Wooden VS metallic Bookcases for bedrooms WHICH IS better?
I love reading hence I loveeeee books and I have LOTS of them. So as a result, I have a book storage problem although I do not think it’s a problem because I could happily make a place for my books in my bed however my husband is not fond of the idea, so I had to consider more conventional methods. The bookcase for our bedroom is one of the most used pieces of furniture in our home. While buying a bookcase of your own, you might want to choose considering the material and structure of your bookcase in accordance with the area in your room and whether you have enough budget to afford it.
A comparison to make things Clear:
To help you chose the perfect bookcase for your bedroom Ihave aligned the pros and cons of both bookcases. Let’s discuss them briefly below.
Wooden bookcase:
Some of the details for the wooden bookcase are:
Pros:
A wooden bookcase will be rich in wooden quality and provide your room with an aesthetic rusty brown look. It will create the look just like in libraries and preserve the paper aroma of the books. You can easily move around a wooden bookshelf in your home.
Cons:
It might not be strong and durable enough to stand all the weight you load with too many heavy books, well, depending on strength of the wood. A wooden bookcase for your bedroom might also get weak with time considering the effects of climate if it is humid or very cold hence moisture. So, you need to be careful where you place the wooden bookshelf and how many things you try to stall it with.
Metallic bookcase
Let’s know more about metallic bookcases:
Pros:
You do not need to worry about the quality of metal because they are usually durable and can easily withstand a lot of weight and pressure. You can apply any paint on your metallic bookshelf according to your room’s theme color.
Cons:
It might be durable, but with time the paint might come off, and you will have to repaint. It is heavy so you would not be able to move it around your house a lot. Eventually, the metallic bookshelf will undergo rusting and would not be able to give an appealing look unless the rustic look is what you are going for.
Which one to choose?
Although both bookshelves, whether it is wooden or metallic, have their own advantages and disadvantages, the final decision is always yours. You should visit many shops and even a flea market where you will be able to find really good options at a lesser price.
This will give you many options, and you can choose which one appeals to you more depending on your personality and taste. You should also keep in mind the theme of your room and go along with it. By arranging things properly, you can have many things categorized in your bookcase besides books. They will not only look perfectly assembled but also give a neat look to your room.
You can also place decoration pieces, baskets, and even frames in one section of your bookcase. But the question then arises is if you place so many things, will it still stand all the weight? So, It really all depends upon the material of your bookcase. Remember if you love reading, then getting the best bookcase for your bedroom is a much-needed investment.
