Shelves are great for both storage and style purposes. It\u2019s like a win-win. Decorating your shelves can seem overwhelming because you want it to look perfect. You may find yourself spending hours rearranging things or deciding which items are actually shelf worthy. Decorating your shelves shouldn\u2019t be stressful&#8230; it can actually be quite fun. Also, it\u2019s important to remember that what you chose to showcase doesn\u2019t have to be permanent. If you decide you don\u2019t like it or you just get bored of it, you can easily swap it out for new things. Here are some of our favorite ways to style up a shelf.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The first step is to narrow down the items that you are going to put on the shelf. Pick pieces that will work well together and are aesthetically pleasing enough to be on display. You don\u2019t want the shelf to look cluttered so make sure that you are being selective.<\/li>\n<li>Narrow down further by choosing a color palette. Now that you know the items you are working with, organize them by color. Play around with which items colors work well together. Place aside those items or patterns that will clash with the overall style and color scheme you are going for.\u00a0Once you have narrowed down your items, start visualizing where you want each piece to go. This step may take some time until you are finally happy with the result. This step involves a lot of trial and error.<\/li>\n<li>Create proper balance. You don\u2019t want to overcrowd your shelves, but you don\u2019t want them to be too empty either. Place larger pieces by themselves and group smaller ones together.\u00a0 The last step is to style it. This is the fun part. Now that all of the visual aspects are squared away you can let loose and create a beautiful look. It is a fun challenge to make different items blend well together.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Have fun decorating!
