Pretty Up Your Shelves

Last week, I took part in a little bit of studio beautification that was inspired by four unused packages of vintage Royledge shelf lining paper I discovered at the Brimfield Antique Show.

In the corner of my work space is a narrow painted shelf with curvy trim. I use this piece to store art supplies, my button collection, and a few of my favorite vintage things. 

These shelves were already in need of a thorough cleaning, so I emptied them out and wiped them down. Then I decided to pretty them up with shelf paper. I chose to use the floral one with pink and red flowers.

I love the shelves new look. Super easy and extra cheerful! The package housed a full fifteen feet of edging, so I plan to use the remaining floral paper to line the shelves in my studio’s Hoosier cabinet.

If you, too, would like to give a shelf unit, cabinet or pantry a retro makeover, three more packages of shelf liner have just made their appearance in my Etsy shop. 😍

So pretty before and after Susan! I've always loved the shelf paper, my mom use to have it on hers back in the early 50"s. It adds such color and cheerfulness to your space.

Loved your post on Brimfield. Some day I hope to get up there.
