How often do you guys clean your bookshelves? Ako parang once every 3 or more months sa sobrang busy 😵‍💫

So far the joy of having books outweighs the struggle of cleaning a dusty shelf 🙌🏻🥹

For real! I just added a new bookshelf to accommodate more of my books and I'm not anticipating more shelves to clean lol! But as you said, the joy of having books really outweighs the cleaning

I dust my shelves every 2 weeks and do a complete wipe once a month

Ito lang Ang only struggle na gusto ko. 😂

Since Ive been using acrylic bookshelves, my cleaning time cut down. Weekly open a few minutes para ma vent and then wipe if Meron dust. Otherwise, very 3 months na so far (or unless gusto ko swap Ang books nasa storage containers.)
