Must-Have Wall Shelf Décor

When decorating open wall shelves, there are a few pieces of décor that never go out of style. We're sharing a few of the must-have products for decorating wall shelves, from storage solutions to decorative trinkets.

Boxes, Bins & Baskets

While wall shelves themselves offer plenty of storage space, they also provide the opportunity to incorporate decorative pieces such as storage baskets and bins. Use decorative bowls and trays, storage boxes, or decorative baskets to get organized while still expressing your style throughout your living room or bedroom.

Potted Plants & Flowers

Plants and flowers are perfect for adding color and vibrancy to any space. Use live houseplants (crawling plants are great for high shelves) to keep your green thumb in practice, or add artificial plants to get the greenery without any of the work.
