Home Inspiration: Open Shelving

When moving into a home, each little bit of square footage can make a difference! Something you might want to consider is open shelving.

Having open shelves can give you that sense of extra space since your eyes aren't blocked. The extra depth can go a long way in making a room feel open and airy!

Not only does it create storage in places that might not currently have storage but it also keeps you from hanging on to cluttered items that are so easy to hide behind doors. Starting out clutter free when you move into a new home can really make it easier to stay clutter free as you enjoy it!

You'll also be right on trend with open shelving. Industrial and mixing vintage with modern these days are really taking off.
