The floating shelf

If you have some leftover wall space, you should definitely consider putting up a floating shelf! They do not have to take up a lot of space, but depending on what you put on it and how you decorate, you can make your home feel a lot cosier and lived in. 

How high should you put a floating shelf?

This is all a matter of individual use cases and personal preferences. Putting a shelf higher can for example have the advantage of keeping things out of children's reach.

You can of course also get creative! For example, a floating shelf mounted low on the wall by the entrance of the house can act as a stylish shoe rack

What to consider when getting a shelf or shelf system:

How much space do you have for a shelf?

When getting a self or shelving system the most important things to consider is how much space you have for putting up shelves and shelving systems. Take some measurements and consider how big of a shelf you could actually fit in the room.

What will the shelf be used for?

The type of storage functionality you need will of course play a big role when buying a shelf. Make sure to consider the depth of the shelf, as shallow shelves can be great for displaying small decorative items but will not offer much in terms of storage opportunities.
