Is your bedroom boring, bland, or tasteless? Are you looking for ways you can improve your sleeping space, all while creating more storage and eliminating clutter in your home? Well, we’re glad you stopped by. In this blog, we’re going to share five dynamite ideas that you can mull over, take and run with, or use as a springboard for your very own brand-new ideas. Let’s jump right in.
5 Radical Bedroom Shelving Ideas
Here at Shelfology, we’re pretty big fans of shelving solutions as not only a way to add storage to your home but also pizzazz and life! Shelves should be more than boring slabs of vinyl-coated MDF… right? Your home deserves juicy, drool-worthy, real-wood slices of hand-selected hardwoods. Can you tell we’re in love with our shelves?
We digress! Let’s take a look at some different ways you can use these beautiful hunks of wood:
#1: The In-Bedroom Office
Don’t have space for a separate office in your home? That’s fine! Segment a portion of your bedroom off for a quick-assembly (and disassembly) office space! Our Yuri Floating Desk Hardware is perfect for setting up a desk space that is super low-profile. Hang matching Aksel Wood Floating Shelves above your desk for a seamless look with high utility.
#2: The “Floating Nightstand”
Not fond of nightstands that get pushed all around the room and collect dog hair and dust bunnies underneath them? Go for a floating shelf near the bed instead! Floating shelves like our Skaksel Floating Shelf make a beautiful piece—especially in a room with neutral tones on most surfaces. The sleek, powder-coated metal will pop and provide a sturdy place to put your most important things for a cozy night’s sleep.
#3: Above-the-Headboard Intrigue
Don’t have an elaborate headboard? No problem. You can pop a crisp, white Aksel LED Premium White Floating Shelf above the head of your bed for not only a surface to place plants, books, and trinkets on, but also a source of light for when you’re reading at night! If you’re looking for something with more harsh lines and a cool feeling, our Double Bender Metal Floating Shelf might be better for you—plus it comes in some wacky, amazing colors.
#4: Don’t Overlook Those Picture Ledges!
Now hear us out—picture ledges take up minimal space on your wall. However, they pack a huge punch. Picture ledges like our Fat Lippies are best used in high-visibility areas to really make an impact on your space. Use picture ledges wisely to display colorful books, pictures, canvases, or even record disks. The sky is the limit!
#5: The Fifth Wall
You know, a lot of people forget that their ceiling has potential, too. You can’t put a floating shelf on your ceiling, but you can hang plants and string lights from them! This may only be a small part of your new design, but don’t forget that it’s possible to use the ceiling.
