The Real Angle on Wall Corner Shelf
Have you ever looked around your home to see just how many open wall corners there are? In the average home there are open wall corners in practically every room. The average person doesn't pay much attention to wall corners. They do not realize that there is a whole new world of decorating concepts that add new dimension to the room simply by adding one or more corner wall shelves to a room. It is not the corner wall shelf that adds the new dimension to the room, but it is what is placed on the corner wall shelf that enhances the feel of the room.
Allow me to give you a few ideas on the uses of wall corner shelves. These corner wall shelf uses have either been done by me or friends of mine. These are innovative ideas on the use of corner wall shelves and perhaps you will want to try one of these ideas or explore new creative ideas of your own.
In my living room I have a flat panel TV mounted on the wall. To go with my TV I have a surround sound audio system. While leaving the subwoofer of the surround sound audio system on top of a cabinet just below the TV, I have placed the two front and two rear speakers of the audio system on top of wall corner shelves in all four corners of the room. The result is optimal separation and superb sound quality. Watching everything from movies to sports, from music videos to my favorite weekly programming is just more enjoyable now. The wall corner shelves made this possible.
My second example of wall corner shelf is this. I have friends, Mark and Alice, who are a married couple. Both of them from time to time suffer from insomnia. You know, now and then instead of falling asleep at night, you end up staring at the ceiling and end up getting no sleep at all. So now you ask me, "What does this have to do with wall corner shelving?" Well my friend, Alice had an idea. She asked Mark to install a wall corner shelf in the bedroom, on the wall corner that is to the right side of the bed headboard. After Mark installed the corner shelving unit, Alice purchased and installed a beautiful ceramic table top fountain. The table top fountain Alice picked is called Pouring Serenity. From the first night after the fountain was added to the bedroom both Mark and Alice have had no problems falling asleep without any interruption until the alarm sounds off in the morning.
Another friend of mine has a family room in her home. On one wall of the family room is a fireplace. The fireplace is in the center of the wall. The mantle for the fireplace extends for the full width of the wall and the wall below the mantle is brick. Above the mantle on the left and right corners of the wall they installed one large wall corner shelf on each side. What she does with these wall corner shelves is display fresh flower arrangements with seasonal flowers. The result is a beautiful addition to the family room that changes all year round.
With wall corner shelves there are a world of possibilities. You can go with one corner of the room. You can go with 2, 3 or 4 corners of the room. You can put up one corner shelf on the wall. You can stack multiple corner wall shelves above each other. You have unlimited options on what you would like to display on your wall corner shelves. You are the master of your wall corner shelf domain. Let your creative ambitions lead the way...
