Most popular way to decorate walls is shelving. Location of shelving depends part on where the shelving is located, whether or not you want to use your shelves in a practical manner or for decoration, or both. It also depends upon the shelves themselves, whether or not they can be painted or otherwise enhanced.
Below given are some ideas for shelving in different situation.
1. Practical
First, think about where your shelving is located, and whether or not you need to use that shelving to hold practical items. Even if you do, you can still make it decorative. Decorate these practical shelves by placing a pretty candle next to the stack of towels or a crystal bowl full of decorative soap. In a kitchen, shelves may be used to hold dishes or other practical items.

2. Decorative only
Many people use shelves to display decorative items only. Displaying a collection on a shelf is a great way to decorate it. A row of bud vases placed on a shelf, with a single flower in each vase, can really dress up a room. Frames arranged on a shelf are a classic way to display your favorite pictures.

3. Special tips
Paint is a great way to decorate shelving as well. Often, people are reluctant to hang or use shelving because it is the wrong color. An inexpensive can of spray paint can easily fix that. If you can’t paint and the shelving unit is still unappealing, try placing pieces of fabric on each shelf to hide the structure.
