Purchasing an entire cabinet or armoire every time you want to put out a few items is a bit excessive. Meanwhile, your walls just sit there with their potential for storage space left untapped. That’s where floating shelves come in. They can serve as an unobtrusive and elegant way to display photos, books, curios and more.
