Simple, sturdy floating shelves for every room
Rustic wall-mounted floating shelves add storage without visual clutter. Choose solid wood and concealed brackets for strength and a clean look.
Where they work
- Bathroom: towels, small plants, toiletries in glass jars.
- Bedroom: books, alarm clock, framed photos.
- Kitchen: spices, small cookware, display jars.
Materials and sizes
- Wood: pine, oak, reclaimed wood. Finish with water-resistant sealant for bathrooms and kitchens.
- Common widths: 24 in, 36 in, 48 in. Depth: 6–12 in depending on use.
- Bracket type: hidden steel brackets rated per shelf load.
Installation basics
- Locate studs; use two brackets for shelves under 48 in, three for longer spans.
- Use appropriate anchors for drywall if studs are not available.
- Ensure level before tightening; test load gradually up to rated capacity.
Styling and maintenance
- Balance objects: place heavier items near the wall or over supports.
- Keep humidity in mind; avoid prolonged exposure to steam without sealant.
- Clean with a damp cloth and mild cleaner; re-seal every few years as needed.
These shelves offer practical storage and a clean, rustic look when mounted and finished thoughtfully.
