Throughout all of my internet research and crowdsourcing friends, one of the biggest space-saving hacks I came across was floating shelves. Admittedly, I was hesitant — what if my things slipped off the shelves and broke?
After becoming frustrated with the clutter on my nightstand, I decided to face my fear and just go for it. So far, nothing has fallen or broken — actually, these shelves have been one of my favorite additions. I use them to hold my favorite candles, succulents, books, and other small decorative objects. They add a nice decor element, but also are very practical.
When you have limited floor space and surface area to work with, using the vertical space you have available is a great idea. These shelves take advantage of that, letting you use your walls for actual storage. Depending on your living situation, you can choose shelves that screw into the wall, or ones that stick with a simple adhesive like these.
