When wall shelves start trending!

When wall shelves start trending!

Whether you are in need of storage space or you just can’t stand having empty walls for your home, we have the pleasure of introducing a little piece of design furniture, both practical and decorative, that we refer to as the wall shelf! At TIPTOE, we understand the potential of this small piece of furniture that pleases in every way. Materials, colours, mounting systems: at TIPTOE, wall shelves are getting a makeover. Our greatest reward? The way you let your imagination run wild and use them in every room of your house. Let’s take a look at the most inspiring shelves in the community.

A passion for gastronomy

In the kitchen, open shelving is all the rage, for storage, as much as for display!  Cookbooks, utensils, food stuffs, herbs: the kitchen wall shelf becomes a truly decorative instrument. By stacking them up, you create a host storage space to keep everything you need at hand on a daily basis, and you gain space in your kitchen.

Marjorie has chosen a staggered formation for our wall shelves in recycled old wood, and Adeline used them as corner shelves. We have a crush on this wood and its long history, which finds a second life in your kitchens. For another decorating idea, go for the accumulation effect. Like a cabinet of curiosities, you can use the wall shelves to showcase  your little treasures.

At Chloé’s place, her composition of solid oak shelves on a sunny yellow background takes on a hardware store look with its vintage accessories, jars and teas with careful packaging. An original and bright decoration!

Cocoon of comfort in the bathroom

Long underestimated, the bathroom has been getting a new image in recent years. There’s no need to hide towels and other beauty products from view to transform the space into a bubble of well-being. Quite the contrary!

RECLAIMED WOOD SHELVES

Create a relaxing atmosphere

Maeva and Virginie have opted for contrasts. Authentic wood pieces for the shelves, raw metal for the wall hangings and light, natural colours for the walls: in their home, the bathroom takes on something of a Nordic SPA, which we find inviting!

Decorate a small space with wall shelves

For those who have small spaces, think of optimising all the corners of your bathroom and create some clever storage space. To hold her pretty little vials, Delia imagined niche shelves wedged between her wall and shower stall. The two shelves in raw wood with bark give a countryside and cocooning look to her space that we adore!

LIVE EDGE WOOD SHELVES

“Wow” effect in the living room

120 X 20 X 2.5 CM

In the living room, more than a simple piece of storage furniture, the wall shelf is a must-have that brings your walls to life! Decorative elements in their own right, TIPTOE shelves allow you to create unique DIY creations with a few turns of a screw. Decorating ideas that never cease to amaze us!

By stacking up our solid oak wall shelves, Jean-Christophe has gone for a fun and graphic design effect. His shelves are not yet filled, but are they really meant to be? Bookcase or cat tree, it’s up to him!

Dress up a wall with a bookcase

If you opt for the bookcase version at home, you can also go for the accumulation effect. A custom-made bookcase to display your favourite books and decorative objects with the added pleasure of doing it yourself! To set up her teleworking space, Katherine has structured her wall with long stacked shelves. A little office just for her that has nothing to envy of her corporate space!

BOOKSHELVES

A minimalist decoration

A special mention for the decorating idea of the day: Audrey’s mini-shelf that holds a drooping green plant like a still-life painting. Audrey has paired our bracket wall mount with a raw trade wood shelf. And you, what will be your next creation?

Magic moments in the bedroom

As a veritable refuge from the hustle and bustle of the world, the bedroom is meant to be a soothing space. Thanks to a set of two white VENEZIA wall shelves in recycle plastic, Jana has designed an original bedside table that sublimates the walls of her bedroom. Did you know that it took no less than a hundred yogurt cups to make each of these shelves? Their gold and silver glitter, witnesses of their former life, highlight the refined and timeless decoration of the room.

RECYCLED PLASTIC SHELVES

Storage for children's toys

In the kids’ room, they have their decorating universe all their own. Cuddly stuffed animals, old-fashioned toys, garlands: the wall shelves serve as a showcase. Our advice? Take inspiration from the Montessori philosophy that insists on the autonomy of young children.

BEDSIDE SHELVES

Like Julia and Max, hang your shelves so that they are easily accessible for your toddlers’ little hands, as an invitation to freely enjoy their own experiences.

60 X 20 X 2.5 CM
90 X 20 X 2.5 CM

If you have enough space, complete their playground with a teepee and cushions on the floor. We at TIPTOE thought Olga’s kids were really lucky!

120 X 20 X 2.5 CM

In short, at TIPTOE, you can create shelves of all sizes in solid oak, raw wood with bark, reclaimed wood and even recycled plastic. And after looking around, you still can’t find what you’re looking for, design your own shelf using the BRACKET wall mount. This is sure to awaken your inner interior decorator!
