These days, especially with the advent of Pinterest, there are vision boards for just about everything. Weddings, parties, retirement, work, home renovations, gardens, and much more.

How about vision boards for readers though? Have you ever started one for your reading? If you haven’t but want to, or even if you have and want ideas for yours, then I have five types of vision boards to inspire you.

TBR List: What a fun and creative way to compile your TBR list. It can always be changing as you finish one book and find another that you want to read. So often I find myself knowing there was a book that was getting rave reviews that I wanted to read, but then I can’t remember it or find the piece of paper I scratched the title on. How frustrating. And the list gets messy as I add and delete books. How cool would it be to have a vision board for my TBR pile? What a fun way to keep track of books. Here’s an example of a vision board for my TBR.

Reading Goals: Another way readers can use vision boards is to create and keep track of your reading goals. Don’t worry that it’s not the beginning of the year. You can set goals any time, and this is a fun way to do it. You can make this a monthly challenge for yourself as well. List your goals, whatever they may be and whenever you want to accomplish them. Here’s just a quick one I put together.

Reading Nook: Are you planning on creating a reading nook or just dreaming of what might be someday? Or do you just love to dream about your ideal reading space? Whatever the case may be, a vision board is a great way to get your ideas together and to see what your style or aesthetic might be. Because what’s a good book without a good place to read it? It was so much fun to put this vision board together and see what my ideal reading place might be.

Cool libraries: One of my favorite things to do is to look online at beautiful libraries. While my local libraries are nice, they aren’t anything in comparison to some found around the world. Clockwise, they are the Trinity Library in Dublin. It boasts 200,000 books. I’d never get bored there! Then there’s the fabulous Anna Amalia Library in Weimar, Germany. It was partly destroyed by fire in 2004, but has been restored. Next is the Yusuhara Community Library in Kochi, Japan. Imagine have that as your community library! Then it’s the Klementinum in Prague. Isn’t it gorgeous? I’m going to be in Prague in November, and I plan on visiting it. Wait for those pictures. Up next is the John Ryland Library in Manchester, England. It’s part of the university but is open to the public. Finally is the Mafra Palace Library in Portugal. It’s gorgeous and dates from the 1700s. What fun to dream about visiting these libraries. Of course, your vision board doesn’t have include such far-flung libraries. Many states have fun libraries and funky bookstores that would be a blast to visit.

Quotes: How about a vision board with your favorite quotes from some of your favorite books? What a great way to keep track of them and to have them in a handy place. The first one from Connilyn Cossette is one I have on a sticky note on my computer. It’s there for me to read every day. But this is a prettier way to do it.

I created all of these using Canva. I do subscribe to the pro version, but you can make pretty boards there for free and print them. Of course, there’s always Pinterest. Just create a board and pin your pictures to it. I love Pinterest and have tons of boards for all kinds of things that interest me. My reading and writing boards are the ones that are public, but I have a whole bunch that are just for me. If you’re a crafty type, you can use a cork board or poster board to create your vision board. Use pictures that you print or cut out and pretty pens to write on the board.

So there are five ideas for reading vision boards. I’m going to go over to Pinterest to put some of these on my boards. What other vision boards might readers like to create? What vision boards do you have?
