Last week I shared the first “Shelf Style” post – my take on the ubiquitous Ikea cube shelves, which you’ll find in 90% of Australian homes*.
This week, I’m beyond thrilled and delighted to welcome Australia’s own queen of style blogging, Nikki from Styling You to tell us about her “Shelf Style” …
What room are your shelves in?
My home office and “lady room“. (As Nikki shared on her blog at the time: “a lady room is a room where you get to store all your lovelies all in one place. The fact that my lovelies are all tied in with my job means having them in the same room as my office space actually makes sense … kind of like a mini version of the fashion and beauty ‘cupboards’ you’d find at a magazine.”)
How long have you had them?
About 12 months (after shifting to Brisbane).
What do you store in the drawers/cupboards?
Books, decorative items, beauty and hair products.
What is your favourite decorator item on your shelves and why?
My collector item Barbie dolls – I was never allowed them as a kid so happily display mine now!
How often do you change the “look” of your shelves?
Not so frequently – mostly just a tidy up every month or so and if I have something new I want to add, I do a little re-jig.
Thank you so much Nikki for sharing your “Shelf Style” with all the Middle Aged Mamas playing along at home – you are truly a style inspiration whether in fashion or homewares!
If you have a set of Ikea shelves (or another brand) in your home – why not join in the fun? I’d love to feature yours in an upcoming blog post! All you have to do is snap some pics and answer the same five questions as Nikki has above, and send to janet@middleagedmama.com.au.
What do you love most about Nikki’s style?
*Yes, I made that stat up.
