DIY HOME: CURATED SHELVES
17th February 2013
Have you noticed that shelves are no longer just a place for stacking your books? They’ve become intensely curated spaces where only the best of the best can linger, carefully staged to be jussssst right. Usually a mix of art, books, travel finds and other pretty things, a well curated shelf usually speaks of a very organised mind (and perhaps a little too much time on one’s hands…). Do you have a penchant for curating your shelves?




Looks really beautiful!

Thanks, I love it too!
I love decorating boards and shelves!
I got picture boards some time ago, and have been “curating” them for some time now. Books, pictures, candles, framed maps – everything goes on them. In my bedroom, I still have some frames left unused, maybe you have a good idea on how to use them? Yout find pictures on my blog http://www.glitzerglitzer.com

These sound super cool, I love to do that at my place
SO PRETTY!!!
Love this specially using your shoes as a display!
Love Kate xo
The shoes are the best – so ‘the coveteur’ xxx
I always love a vase of fresh flowers on display- adds so much life to a room. And I also love displaying all my old magazines, rather that than having them sit under my bed!

Fresh flowers are my fave, although so sad then they die.
Very inspiring

This is maybe a bit of a strange compliment, but I really like your pin it button! (I’ve pinned it!) And the photos, and the shelves, of course!

hahaha thanks, I like it too!
That last one is rather inspiring, I definitely feel the need to work something out in my shelving department, make it seem more like a work of art!

I adore that last image with the shoes arranged so beautifully on the shelves. I can’t imagine my fiancee being thrilled with the idea of having shoes on display around the house though. Maybe in the dressing room?

Hahahaha I know, I get the feeling you have to live alone or with other friends in order to be able to decorate with clothes!
Love the idea of curating your shelves. Recently took everything of mine of the few shelves I own. Mostly because I’m not in a place of my own and I thought I needed to at least feel like I had more space.
Once I get a place I’m definitely going to try and curate.
Great to hear
When I moved into my apartment I had NO shelving. My coffee table books were being used as an actual coffee table!
I built a custom floor-to-ceiling-wall-to-wall shelving unit that frames the windows in my apartment, and it’s really what turned my place into a real home. My entire library is organized and all my best treasures are always on display.
Sounds amazing Sacha!! And you made it yourself, what more could a girl ask for?
Thanks for the great ideas. I really like your style and design.
Best wishes,

Looks fabulous <3

Yesss shelves have always been my alternative for display cases! I love being able to just occasionally change compositions. It’s like my inspiration book in 3D.
I’ve just featured your blog in my recent post My Favourite Blogs @ The Science of Happy.

Haha definitely.. it’s all the bits and bobs that count now, I love the gold, and the magazine piles are so easy if you already collect them, and look cool too.
