Shelves
Wood is a very versatile material. In addition to custom furniture, it can be present on the floor, ceiling, decorative materials and even on shelves. As a result, you just need to use creativity to get beyond the obvious and build a tree of knowledge.

The use of ropes in the production of shelves has won the hearts of decorators. This is because in addition to giving a special charm to the corner, it avoids the need for several holes in the wall. This way, just place two hooks to tie the rope. And the bigger it is, the more shelves it can be suspended on.

On the other hand, have you ever heard of invisible shelves? They are small metal sheets fixed to the wall. And, to hide it, just leave the back cover of the book down and place a small magnet to hold it. In this case, the magnet used was that of a super heroine. Fun, right?

One of the main features of industrial decoration is exposed piping. In this case, adding a touch of color helps to highlight the area. Furthermore, the happier the color, the livelier the decoration will be.

Playing with geometric shapes seems like a child’s thing, but it’s not. Even in decoration, different formats create sensations, textures and encourage creativity. Therefore, this technique of geometric niches and shelves is great for home offices.

Make shelves yourself
If you think you can’t innovate in your decor using just boards, it’s because you don’t know the power of paint. Just make a circle with a pencil on the wall and mark where the shelves will be. Once cut, simply attach them to the wall and paint each one in the color corresponding to the wall color.

You know that unused ladder that is stored in the basement? It’s time to varnish it and use it as shelves for books and decorative objects.

Furthermore, I bet you never imagined seeing shelves held together by belts. They don’t need to be the same or the same size, they just need to be resistant. However, avoid placing heavy objects on this type of shelf.

Decorating with pallets is sustainable and super cheap. With creativity, it is possible to transform the shelves into a beautiful vertical garden on the small balcony.

And since we’re talking about pallets, how about a shelf with hooks for the bathroom? Thus, in addition to decoration, the place can store personal hygiene products. But, before picking up any pallet on the street, remember that you need to be careful with the pallet when choosing it.

Niches
Modern architecture has brought the concept of the niche built into the box. Thus, in addition to taking up less space in the bathroom, it can also have its own lighting.

This also applies to other rooms, especially the living room. For those who don’t like enjoying a film or series in the dark, the illuminated niches provide indirect lighting. On the other hand, they make decorative objects more evident.

Integrated environments offer several benefits. Among them is the feeling of spaciousness in the room. However, some furniture or elements help to create this visual separation of the rooms. For example, a sofa, a rug and even a piece of furniture full of niches and shelves!

The small kitchen is the place that needs the most functionality in the house. Therefore, the more frequently used items that are close to hand, the better. As a result, the niche next to the stove is used to store the most used seasonings and pans.

There are people who love a little coffee after lunch. On the other hand, there are people who love a glass of wine with dinner. Therefore, a countertop with a bar or a coffee corner in the kitchen are great!

The baby’s room is usually decorated with pastel colors and delicate objects. And, to bring even more joy to the newcomer, playing with niches in different formats is an excellent idea!

Niche for living room
Most Brazilians have unused objects at home that can be transformed into decoration. For example, these niches can be replaced with thick picture frames or a wooden lid.

The corner of a wall cannot and should not be forgotten during decoration. But be careful! Consult an architect or civil engineer before digging holes in the corners of the house.

Nowadays, almost any decorative object can be custom made. And, to decorate the living room, simply measure the width of the sofa and make a set of niches with approximately the same measurement. As a result, the room will be symmetrical.

DIY
At the end of the fair there is no shortage of bins in the trash. So, how about reusing them and transforming a corner of the house into a beautiful display of crafts and succulents? And, to keep the pieces attached, just use small screws. With a touch of paint, they will be unnoticeable!

On the other hand, a very simple and delicate version of making niches is using ice cream sticks. To fix them you need hot glue. Furthermore, if you want to add a touch of color to the room, just use spray paint.
