I have a thing for open shelves styled with beautiful artefacts that create vignettes with fresh, playful and polished personality. I love them looking like a gallery space where the items that reflect our interest are displayed as art. It's beautiful to look at books that are neatly arranged horizontally or vertically mixed with intriguing, unususal, aesthetically pleasing objects such as statues,pretty bowls,a stack of boxes, sculptural vases, an eye-catching antique, natural items [wood, coral, rocks, a plant...] - it's visually interesting to have the accents diverse in theme, texture and colour. Balance is key!

Tenho um certo problema com o styling das minhas estantes: livros a mais, prateleiras a menos ahahahahah!!! Mas lá vu conseguindo introduzir umas coisinhas, vá, uns arranjos.

How much kind of shelves show us!. I think they are very important in our homes. For order, for showing our recordings, for our books.....
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week and kisses a lot.
I love making up little "stories" on shelves. I have one with Mr. Spock, St. Anthony, and Buddha that's pretty brilliant.
ReplyDeleteI love the way these beautiful shelves look! The open look is so fantastic and is so creative! The options are endless. I like your idea about having natural items like coral and wood!
