<h2 style="text-align:center;white-space:pre-wrap;">How to Style Shelving in Your Home</h2>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">1. Collect Pieces</h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Begin by laying out all of the potential pieces for your shelving or surface, a collection of framed artwork, vases, jars, candles, books, and personal knick-knacks. </p>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">2. Determine Spacing</h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Play around with the spacing and determine how you want to hang your shelves. </p>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">3. Start with Largest Items</h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">To begin, start by placing your largest objects on the shelves, vary their placement from one side, the other, and the middle.</p>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">4. Add Greenery</h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Now is a good time to add any plants or greenery to your arrangement. Adding plants brings character and life to an otherwise stagnant arrangements.</p>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">5. Add Books </h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Bring some of your favorite books into the mix and stack them either horizontally, vertically, or with a lean against other objects. Adding books can bring color, height variety, and increase the visual interest.</p>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">6. Bring in Medium Items</h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Add your medium sized objects like other vases, jars, frames, or bookends. Do not be afraid to overlap pieces as this adds dimension and a more casual feel to your arrangement. </p>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">7. Add Trinkets</h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Now for your smaller trinkets, stack them, add them, lean them. At this point, do not be afraid to move around your other pieces to find a visual balance that you like. </p>

<h2 style="white-space:pre-wrap;">8. Final Details</h2>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Now you can really bring your arrangement to life by adding the final details such as grasses, candles, personal trinkets, crystals, and more. Find the empty spaces and fill them. Play with texture and color here. Once you have the balance that you like, ta da! You have become a shelving stylist!</p>
