Shelving storage ideas

Wednesday, October 22, 2008

Fit two rows of books on each shelf - simply raise the back row of books on a piece of wood that's painted to match the shelves.
Stylist's tip
Paint the floating shelves the same colour as a desk below to create a modern take on a dresser



Give your shelving a bespoke look - and disguise fittings - by fixing skirting board in the same finish around the front edges
Stylist's tip
A strip light above the ornaments draws attention to the display area and creates mood lighting





Want something you can add to over time? Go for modular units you can arrange exactly how you want, with drawer inserts to hide clutter
Stylist's tip
Laid back on their sides and covered with a seat pad, the modular units create a handy window seat with storage




Create stunning but inexpensive sliding fabric panels that'll look fantastic drawn across alcoves. Try IKEA for the tracks and fixings.

Stylist's tip

Match the fabric on the panels to the wallpaper on the chimney breast to create the illusion of a feature wall
