Why Every Home Should Have Glass Display Cabinets?
We all need proper storage in our homes and often end up opting for drawers and cupboards to hide everything from being visible. This is definitely useful but what about those pieces that demands to be looked at and praised? Glass display cabinets on the other hand allow you to look at your things whenever you feel like while keeping them clean and safe. They’re less obstructive than the wooden cupboards, as the glass allows you to see straight through them.
Go for A Complete Contrast
This kitchen is that one place that shows how differently styled wall and base cabinets can look so chic together. The black-blue glass cabinets are visibly more dominant, in contrast to the pale neutrals around them. This is a minimalist contemporary design that’s easy-to-go yet striking.
If you have a neutral-coloured or white kitchen and have one or more glass display cases, this is an easy and classic look to create. Paint your cupboards in contrasting colours.
Use Neat Baskets
In a large cabinet, you may be tempted to stuff it with things, and not of those would be pretty to look at. If that sounds like you’re doing, and you are not interested in looking at the piles of snacks, toiletries, crafts kit and stationeries, buy baskets that fit in the cabinets and can also hide the contents.
Beautiful cane baskets are easily available online and offline. Choose the biggest baskets that will fit the contents well. You can also choose to colour or spray paint them with shades that matches with your kitchen and cupboards.
Display Your Shoes
If you have an amazing collection of shoes that you are proud of, treat them as pieces of art that need to be displayed in the finest cabinetry. Many old cupboards have the perfect depth for a pair of shoes. Multiple shelves can be added so that they can be placed together, nice and close, allowing you to create a magical blend of colours, styles and types of shoes that are bound to look amazing.
Upcycle a Cabinet
An old acrylic display cabinet, that was once shiny, and orangey, but not anymore, can become a wonderful addition to the bathroom, sitting neatly above a towel rail and storing your favourite toiletries near your reach yet neatly tucked away.
If you have a cabinet that is of the right size and shape, don’t just sell it off. Rather just paint and accessorise that matches with your décor.
Showcase Your Treasured Collection
If you have a box full of memorable and cherished items that are just gathering dust and crying out for help, get them out and enjoy them. It doesn’t necessarily have to be things that match with each other, rather, it can just be anything that makes you smile. Glass display cases will give your much cherished items a sense of importance like the museums.
Explore and Show A Vintage Find
Show the world how a retro, freestanding cabinet can add character and warmth to a modern-day white kitchen. You may have inherited one or walked past one in an auction shop. Bring it home and find a spot where it suits the best.
Cabinets like these are a great place to store crockeries that you rarely use, bone China bowls, soup bowls, pretty platters and trays.
