Choose a deep storage shelf with plenty of room for bulky kitchen staples and decorative items. Hang a set of hooks underneath your shelving to store mugs, measuring cups, utensils, and more.

Use an open shelf to fill awkward gaps in your cabinetry. If you plan to use this open shelving for storage, make sure it’s within reach of your sink or stovetop. There’s also no reason not to extend your kitchen shelving idea into the dining room.

The kitchen is one room where you’ll definitely want sturdy shelving. Take the time to hang your bracket shelves in a stud. If no stud is available, your best option is to pick a different spot or install additional support.

9. Rustic Wall Shelf Ideas

Rustic-inspired shelving benefits from an eclectic mix of decor. Choose shelving with tons of texture and color variation. For a contemporary aesthetic, avoid clunky hardware in favor of streamlined floating shelves.

Natural wooden shelves can warm up an otherwise simple room design. You can also include leather and worn metal accents to give the space a more inviting atmosphere. Or place potted plants on a small shelf for a bit of life. Faux plants and wreaths are great alternatives — no one will know the difference if you put them on a high-up shelf.
