Decorative Wall Shelf - What Everyone Should Know

You know, as far back as I can remember, there has been some kind of decorative wall shelving in every home of mine. I can remember my father putting up decorative wall shelf in our living room, all the bedrooms, dining room and kitchen. You might say that my father was a handyman and he loved to remodel our home over the years just to give it a new and interesting look.

If you are looking to add an attractive look to your living room, then I suggest decorative wall shelf. Adding one or two 24 inch wide wall shelving units to one of the walls of your living room and putting a floral arrangement or some sort of decorative vase or crystal art will add a warm comfortable feel to the room. There are so many decorative pieces to place on decorative wall shelves. I’m sure there is something you could think of to make your wall shelves special.

Depending on the theme and type of furniture in the room, wood finishes in oak, maple or walnut are available to blend in well with your decor. Of course, you can go with solid colors of white or black or with the choice of any color you wish to paint these wall shelves.

In the bedroom, you might want to install a shelving unit called a display ledge. These wall shelves are floating because you do not see any means of support below these shelves.

Depending on the size of the wall and the location in the room, you might want to install multiple shelves on the same wall in different sizes and levels. This gives a classic look and a comfortable feel to the bedroom.

In the dining room you might want to go with a decorative wall shelf called the wrought iron wall bracket. This wall shelf features a dark wood shelf with an artfully crafted wrought iron support.

The support is below the wood shelf is artfully twisted wrought iron in a rust color making this magnificent piece 33 inches tall. Depending on how much wall space you have, either one of these or two of these offset would add an elegant feel to anyone’s dining room.

There is so much to choose from when it comes to wall shelving for your dining room. Only you know exactly what will complete the look of your dining room. 

Decorative wall shelf for your kitchen is also a matter of what style or theme you have established in your kitchen. Contemporary kitchens have a great deal of stainless steel. Retro kitchens have bright colorful walls usually wallpapered with metal kitchen sets.

Country kitchens have farm animal themes, wild flowers and wild birds. These kitchens have decorative wall shelves available in an assortment of charming styles.

Some kitchens are tiled walls and backsplashes, while others are painted walls with food and beverage art around the room. Some kitchens have stained wood cabinetry while other kitchen cabinets are painted solid colors.

In order to select the perfect match decorative wall shelf to complete your kitchen, you have to compare your style kitchen with a wall shelf style that will add to the feel of the room.

Decorative wall shelf serves two purposes. First and foremost, the wall shelf must compliment the decor of the room. There is nothing better than walking into the room and a feeling of pride and joy comes over you. The second purpose of decorative wall shelf is to display your prized possessions.

DÉCOR TIPS & QUIPS from AlphabetPIX.com
Bringing Out Your Inner BOLD!
Bill Blass said, “Style is primarily a matter of instinct.” Decorating takes on a new meaning for each individual. Clever and chic for Janie may be yesterday’s yawn-fest for Carol. Different tastes in décor mean different furniture, artwork and color palettes. So what is the rule of thumb for making your place zing if it’s not a certain style, pattern, or color?
Bold, baby! Bring on the bold!
Boldly say what you want to say when designing a room. Make a statement and let your personality shine through. If you go in for the palest blues to soothe and relax, add a custom zing to make it pop! Love black and white photography? Maybe even some of that ultra-hot photo alphabet wall art in black and white? Splash in some passionate pink or revved up red on the wall to make it sizzle.
No longer are walls content with neutral shades. Any color of the palette goes! Splash on muted melons or eccentric eggplants with savvy sage. Classic colors cozy up with velvety crimsons and Dijon yellows. Color is fantastically bold and beautiful! Rich textured throws, swags, rugs and runners jazz up every room, every time.
Patterns are all the rage now, too. Twists and twirls, paisleys and pearls-bold is key! Did you ever in a million years think of dotting stripes and striping dots? Designers these days are pulling out all the geometrical stops. Paisley mixes with all sorts of combinations-checks, polkas, and weathered solids. Discover a new way of looking at the world around you in different shapes and deigns.
Mix it all with gorgeous gilding in silver and gold. Toss in a few well-chosen accents-bold and beautiful. And with the trend of decor becoming more and more personalized, a meaningful piece of photography will make you feel right at home. Black and white as well as the historic look of sepia photography looks gorgeous in any room. Add all these ingredients together, and you’ve got yourself a decorating design that not only expresses your individual style but does so as personally and beautifully as you want it to.
Whatever you want to say while decorating, say it with your own personal sense of style. Put it out there for the world to see and don’t look back! Embrace your individuality whether your nature is “Janie jazzed” or “Carol calm”. Express yourself! When people enter your home they’ll shoot you a complementary smile, knowing it looks and feels sooooo perfectly like you. And no one can do YOU better.
