Y’all! I am overwhelmed with the response from my post yesterday! Even Nate Berkus himself “liked” my Instagram shout out! Ahhhh! Walking on Cloud-9 over here! As I continue posting and getting such great feedback, I am shown in so many ways why this is what I’m meant to do. Thank you for so much support!
Alright, so my tip of the day has to do with filling your walls. Many of us love pictures, art work, posters with a shelf here or there to display other knick knacks and such. Well, I for one, am a lover of large OPEN SHELVING! The beauty of this, is you can do it in any room in the house!
Side Note: for those who aren’t organized and don’t stay organized this will either challenge you to, or you should stick with doors.
One of my favorite rooms for an open shelving display is the KITCHEN! You spend all this time picking out beautiful dish sets and glasses, some may even have vintage china, and they get locked away in cupboards and family hutches. Put those beauties on display people!!
The best part about the kitchen shelving is you don’t really need to add anything else; you already have plenty to work with! Seriously, just look at some of these photos!

Another great location for open shelving, is the bathroom! The open shelf look is especially great in guest bathrooms!
Keeping your towels, extra toiletries, toilet paper, and odds and ends readily available for those staying, gives that special touch of home and ease. No more awkward adventures of searching through people’s homes! (We’ve all been there)
Keep checking for all my tips and tricks! You guys rock!
