I’m not a fan of faux greenery that is really bright or looks fake.
If you want to add some greenery to your bookshelf, a vase is a great place to do this. Using different textured vases also can add visual interest to your shelf. Large vases are great for using as single items on shelves and smaller vases are for pairing with other objects of different heights. Vases are another option to use in decorating bookshelves. Another great thing about using larger boxes and baskets is that it gives you storage options for your bookshelves. If the boxes or baskets are pretty large, this may be the only decor item you need to fill that particular shelf. I actually like starting with the large things such as boxes and baskets and then filling in with smaller things. Using decorative boxes and baskets is also a great way to add style to a bookshelf. You can use books in different ways, but a couple of my favorite is to use in between two cool bookends or to lay them flat and stack them. I love using books to decorate with because they add height and dimension, and it just makes sense. What would a bookshelf be without books? Books are my number one item for decorating bookshelves. In other words, don’t put too many decor elements on each shelf. So when you are planning what items to place on your shelves, make sure not to overdo it. I think this applies to any type of design, and in this case, bookshelf decor. I know I say this a lot, but less is more. These are places where you can find affordable shelf decor without breaking the bank.
Some of these items you may already have at home and if not I suggest looking at Target, Tjmax, and Home Goods. After you compile your inspiration, you can start looking for your decor items. I suggest coming up with three or four photographs from either Pinterest, Instagram, or even a book as a guide for your decor. Getting inspiration is huge before starting to decorate your bookshelves. This will allow the items to make more of an impact. I do suggest using textures when using lighter colors on white bookshelves. A white bookshelf is a perfect backdrop to display wood tones, brass, and even black. You want to make sure the items don’t blend in with the background.Ī white bookshelf allows you to use a wider variety of materials and colors, unlike a darker bookshelf. Instead, I will use more gold, white, and even some black elements. This means I will not be using lots of wood for my bookshelf decor. For instance, our office bookshelves are the color Sherwin Williams Inkwell, which is a darker color with white oak wood backing.
This will make a difference in what colors and materials you will use to decorate your bookshelves. Shelf decor should be simple and clean, not cluttered!
