Different types of wall shelves and some DIY ideas to install them in the home

Shelves solve the storing problems thoroughly. Be it the magazine and novel collection or the display of knick-knacks and picture frames; everything can get a pleasant accommodation there. One of the intelligent designs of shelves in a small space is the wall-mounted shelf. It not only saves the floor space but does make a beautiful home décor with the functional benefits. The varieties are on board in different styles, patterns, sizes and materials. You are the sole owner to decide your desired pick. Here’s a look at the varied types of wall-mounted shelves that you can choose from: 1.Standard wall shelf: One can see the visible brackets to support the shelf in this type of shelf. The size and shape of the said furniture unit are fairly understated making no huge impact. It is usually preferred when the decors around are simple.

2.Floating wall shelf: The complete opposite of the one we have discussed above, floating wall-mounted shelves hide the brackets. The units are crafted with high safety standards if they are used to store heavy articles.

3.Corner wall-mounted shelf: This kind of shelf is made to be installed in the corner of walls at a ninety-degree angle.

The size of the wall-mounted shelves can be bigger to accommodate more things. Here are some nice DIY ideas to have them in different places of the home.

1.Get a few planks of your desired size and paint them with some colourful hues. Attach the pieces to the wall and cover the base with fancy papers. Make sure that when you install the units, no asymmetry is there. This will create a nice vertical or horizontal row on the wall and beautify the room.

2.Attaching a couple of planks in distinct sizes is a clever trick too. For instance, three of the short size and three of the long can be taken. Either place them vertically or horizontally but remember to do the proper spacing. This one-of-a-kind of wall shelf arrangement gives a different appeal to the room and can store the units aptly.

3.Introduce glass wall shelves in the bathroom. The unit will look unique when the brackets are installed upside down. You can locate cosmetics, lotions, soap dispensers, brushes and other toiletries in a defined order.

4.Wooden wall shelves can transform themselves into a piece of artwork. On the rustic wood beauty, showcase houseplants, scented candles, hard-covered books and other accessories. Above this, you can place an elegant wall mounted light, and when the lamp gets turned on, the shelf will look like a statement piece on the wall.
