1- quirky shapes and styles
A massive interiors trend seen all over the internet recently is the use of quirky shapes and bold female figured ornaments. From bendy candles to vegetable shaped décor, there really nothing to come in future trends that would be surprising. People are going bold with styling, colouring outside the lines with creating a look.
2- The monochrome look
If your current interiors are more minimalist with little colour, there is lots of choice when styling your shelves. Going for a monochrome look is elegant and bold without being too extravagant in design. Having black and white features allows you to keep your current style how it is but also leaves room to add pops of colour in if you decide in future to change up your style. Mustard yellows and sage green accessories can pair nicely with monochrome pieces.
- Make the most of the space on your shelves
When it comes to styling a particular area of your home, especially a blank canvas like shelving or a cupboard top, it can take a while to settle on a final look. Although interior styles evolve through time, can be hard to decide on a current look if you haven’t got all the bits you are looking for. If you have ceramics or ornaments you want to display and make a statement with but can’t decide what to pair with them, you can always use books as display pieces and layer with vases and dried flowers. Ceramics look great when layered in front of leaning artwork too.
- Creating an Insta worthy space
If like us you take pride in your interior style and like to nicely display accessories and new additions to your home, you may want to create a corner or space in a room that acts as a backdrop for your Instagram imagery, if you have a home account and want to keep a consistent look, decorating shelving can be the best way to create a go to area to shoot. Ceramics come in all shapes and sizes and can easily be rearranged to suit your style. Using ceramic vases with dried flowers is also a simple and pretty look to create.
- Pops of colour
Having a bold eclectic style allows you to go wild with a maximalist approach to styling. Choosing ornaments and bits and bobs for your shelving can be a fun process as you will have lots of colours and items to work with. Along with the quirky shaped ceramics mentioned earlier, opt for bright and pastel colours with lots of layers and detail
