How to Style Floating Shelves Like a Pro

Styling floating shelves is all about balance. Here are a few easy tips to create a curated, high-end look:

Mix Function & Décor

Pair practical items (bowls, books, jars) with decorative accents (plants, artwork, candles) to keep shelves both useful and visually interesting.

Use the Rule of Odd Numbers

Groups of three or five items tend to feel more natural and balanced than even numbers.

Vary Height & Texture

Combine tall and short objects, smooth and textured finishes, and different materials like wood, ceramic, metal, and glass.

Add Greenery

Plants instantly soften shelves and bring warmth to any space—real or faux both work beautifully.

Keep It Light

Avoid overcrowding. Leaving some open space helps shelves feel intentional and keeps the room from feeling heavy.

A Smart Upgrade with Big Impact

Floating shelves are one of the easiest ways to elevate your home without a full renovation. They offer flexible storage, timeless style, and the freedom to refresh your look whenever inspiration strikes.

Whether you’re updating a kitchen, adding storage to a bathroom, or styling a statement wall in your living room, Peppermill Home floating shelves make it simple to achieve a polished, functional space.
