Best Places For Installing Floating Shelves In The Kitchen

As you can notice from our collection, you can place a floating shelf in different parts of the kitchen. They can be set on the backsplash, whether in the middle or on the top of it. Also, you can add some on the side of the kitchen cabinet. This is great way to use that empty space and thus provide extra storage space. Also, don’t neglect the space on the top of the cabinets, which is perfect for an extra shelf over there. And in case there is some low freestanding cabinet, add some floating shelves on the wall above it. Choose them to be the same width and thus create an illusion of tall storage piece.

Design of Floating Shelves

And when it comes to design of the floating shelves, the choices are quite versatile. Wooden shelves are the most common choice and they can fit into different kitchens. You can also choose to repaint these shelves, to make them matching with the rest of the kitchen design. Or, maybe paint them in some contrasting shade to make them pop out from the rest of the kitchen decor.
