The mix and match or eclectic look is in these days. That means you can not only mix and match styles, but mix and match furnishings as well.
While bakers racks were originally conceived for the kitchen, there are plenty of places nearby the home that can use a nice counter space, further shelves and even some cabinets for Storage.
Bakers racks offer you the flexibility, selection and style you're looking for in today's home furnishings. Since we live in a movable society, you want to find furniture that can fit in your home of the future as well as the home you have now.
When looking for a rack for the living room, you probably want a piece that not only complements your existing décor, but also has several shelves and possibly a cabinet below. Display and storehouse space is all the time at a premium these days, as families try to find room for all the kid's sports and activity trophies, memory-filled photos, small pieces of art and the endless Dvds, Cds and videos (yes, remember those?) that have found their way into our homes over the years.
Baker's racks come in two basic styles for the living room or great room. You can get models that fit along a wall or which fit into a corner. The latter is often a good choice, since you can add storehouse and display space in an under used measure of the room. These will not only add room, but also bring focus to a particular section of the room. A bakers rack is like a curio cabinet, but much less formal.
Moving on to other rooms; the bedroom is a good candidate for these racks, particularly kid's rooms. What kid doesn't have a huge supply of activity figures, dolls, stuffed animals and collectibles in his or her room? A baker's rack can supply a logical place to store these items. As the child gets a bit older, there's even room for a laptop or small Computer on the Tabletop of some racks. Again, a angle unit may be the best selection here, since it maximizes storehouse without taking up too much precious play space.
Bathrooms can use them as well. If you have a nice variety of designer towels, toiletries, candles and Accessories, a baker's rack can be a great addition. It will supply your visitors with easy entrance to important items while holding them out of your linen closet and treatment cabinet where you may want to keep items that are more personal.
When choosing storehouse racks for your living spaces; keep two key things in mind. First, you want to think about its use. You don't want to get an all shelf unit if you want to keep some things out of sight. Second, you want to agree a piece that complements the majority of pieces you own. You don't want to get something that's so ornate that it will never work with your specialist bedroom or living room furniture or look good in the entryway. In a mix and match world of décor, flexibility is the spice of life when it comes to bakers racks.
