Seasonal Shelf Styling

Seasonal Shelf Styling 2

Now that I’ve had my white IKEA shelves up in ONE SPOT for a WHOLE year…. It’s time to do some rearranging, right??

Maybe, maybe not. But I do need to document this for all the people in my life that think I change my house around too often! (I’m looking at you, Jason Lemp)

I’ve left this spot alone (kind of) for a whole year, and I’ve enjoyed switching things around for each new season. Do you decorate seasonally at your house? I honestly don’t do a TON of seasonal decorating, but have enjoyed creating this one, main focal point in my home.

Tips for Creating a Beautifully Styled Shelf

  1. Start with a clean shelf that is proportional to your space. I used three of these basic, white shelves from IKEA that are only 24.99 each! I covered a large wall, and could almost use one more shelf.
  2. Don’t go overboard with knick knacks and clutter.
  3. Arrange your books by COLOR! I switched out different colored books for different seasons.
  4. A little color goes a long way.
  5. Don’t forget the greens. Small pops of greenery help keep things fresh looking.
  6. Layer and stack items to create height.

A Few of My Favorite Things:

  • IKEA Bookcases
  • Wood logs – Cut your own or get them here
  • Old scales – This is a cute one that actually works as a clock!
  • IKEA Boxes
  • IKEA greenery
  • Cake stands
  • Apothecary jars
  • Glass cloche
  • Old crates and boxes
  • Bookends
  • Antique pitchers
  • Books
  • Antique tool boxes
  • Lanterns
  • Wood signs
  • Letterboards
