Corner Shelves For Bedroom

222 Ideas by Tara Gosselin

It may seem silly, but believe it or not, bedrooms are the trickiest to buy odd furniture for, because most pieces are boxy rectangular cubes. Because of this, the corners are largely unutilized. Fill that space with corner shelves for bedrooms. They come in an array of colors and styles to fit your bedroom furniture, and give you a nice place to put things previously without a home.

How do you dress a corner shelf in a bedroom?

Corner shelves for a bedroom originally designed for storage can quickly become the bedroom’s most attractive focal point. Depending on your style and size of shelf, there are quite a few options.

For smaller corner shelves that are purely decorative, it’s best to dress them in a minimalistic way that doesn’t appear cluttered. Try to let each shelf highlight a unique piece of decor. Choose a picture frame for one shelf, a potted plant for another, a candle, or a meaningful item, each displayed on its own.

For large corner shelves, it’s still important to consider the aesthetic of the room. If you plan to use the shelves for book storage, organize your novels in a visually pleasing and systematic way.

There are several simple rules to follow to create a visually appealing display. Group items in odd numbers, either three or five items, to keep the look uncluttered. Layer items on top of each other and create triangular displays to draw the eye upward.

Try to incorporate design elements from the rest of the bedroom so that it looks cohesive. You can add colors from your bedding or floor rugs to the shelving design through bookends, colored flowers, or flower pots.

How high should corner bedroom shelves be?

Corner shelves for bedroom use should start at 4’ to 4.5’ up from the floor, or eye level, and extend as high as you need them to, even falling just below the ceiling if you choose. Determine what, if anything, you plan to place on the highest shelf and provide enough space between it and your ceiling.

The height you choose will mostly depend on the type of shelving you put in place. If individual shelves are being placed above a corner desk or cabinet, use a shelf height of 22” to 24.” Otherwise, start at the 4’ to 4.5’ eye level height and add one, two, or three shelves. Space these according to what you will store on each shelf. Aim to create a balanced look by ensuring all corner shelves within a room have an equal height separating them.

How many inches should there be between corner shelves?

Corner shelves are versatile and can be used in many applications. If you're considering investing in corner shelves for the bedroom, here's what you need to know. You'll need to consider alignment and also spacing in order for your shelves to give off a sense of order.

The rule of thumb is to leave 12 inches of space between each shelf. However, if you are going for a more playful, inventive, and accessible look, bump those figures up to 15 to 18 inches.
