When decorating in the farmhouse style, practical touches mix with decorative flair. Everything has the fresh, clean simplicity of life on the farm. These shelves look great in any room in the house, from the kitchen to the bathroom. Many items are vintage or upcycled, with wear and tear a bonus rather than a disadvantage.

26 Practical and Beautiful Farmhouse Shelf Decor Ideas

Farmhouse Shelf Decor Ideas

Farmhouse style uses a palette of white with rustic wood finishes. Many of these shelf ideas start with weathered wood. Vintage wood is a popular style, as are chunky wall shelves that look like the exposed beams in an authentic farmhouse.

One authentic touch from a historical farmhouse kitchen is the built-in wall rack for plates and cutting boards. This all-white wall shelf provides practical storage space while enhancing the farmhouse aesthetic of the kitchen.

Outside the kitchen and bathroom, these shelves are used for decorative items. Family photos and plants sit on most of these shelves. The farmhouse decorations are mainly white and cream colored in keeping with the theme. Touches from the kitchen and the farm make their way onto shelves in other parts of the house.

These farmhouse shelf decor ideas will enhance the overall look of your home while providing much needed storage and display space.
