FacebookTwitterOkGoogle+PinterestVk

Shelves are a simple furniture structure that is convenient due to its openness, most often has a small size and is endowed with a responsible function - storing items. Designers have developed a large number of models that, in addition to their direct purpose, are designed to complement the interior. A special place among this type of furniture is occupied by glass shelves on the wall, the practicality and decorativeness of which is to the taste of many.

Glass shelves are a practical element of furniture, but at the same time they look elegant and weightless.

Glass shelves in the interior: technologies that promote aesthetics and durability

Glass has been used as a material for making furniture for quite a long time, and its scope of application is constantly expanding. Such popularity is ensured primarily by special physical, technical and aesthetic qualities - durability and a variety of decorative processing methods.

Triplex, tempered, reinforced and ordinary glass are used to make shelves

One type of furniture where glass is used as a material are shelves. In the interior (the photos clearly demonstrate this), they not only serve as decoration, but also serve as a place for storing various items.

Several types of glass are used to make glass shelves:

1. Tempered. It is made by heating ordinary glass to 700 °C and gradually cooling it under a stream of cold air.
2. Triplex. Two (or more) sheets of glass are glued together with a special film.
3. Reinforced. Glass reinforced with metal mesh.
4. Normal (window).

As you can see in the photo, the glass shelves on the walls in the interior have different shapes and colors. The listed characteristics in each specific case correspond to the general design style. The presence of decorative processing and the ability to make models of original shaped shelves from glass are important positive qualities of this material. Modern decorative processing technologies make it possible to produce the following types of glass:

Wall shelves made of glass can be of different shapes and colors

• transparent;
• matte;
• tinted;
• frosted;
• corrugated.

By bending glass, you can give it an interesting shape: the sheet is heated until plastic, then the desired configuration is created. After cooling, the shape is retained. Environmental friendliness, resistance to temperature changes and moisture make glass an increasingly popular material.

Where to use

The best place for this type of product has always been the bathroom. This is natural - all the positive properties of glass come in handy here - resistance to water, ease of maintenance and the ability to minimally conceal free space visually. However, some types of such shelves are perfect for use in other rooms.

For example, beautiful glass shelves can be attached to the wall in the living room and various photographs or souvenirs brought from other countries can be placed on them. This way you can always admire your memorable moments or objects. At the same time, they will easily fit into both classic and modern interiors. If desired, you can choose models made of frosted or colored glass.

A small shelf in the hallway can be used to place keys when entering the house or as a place for gloves. You can put any small items on it that are usually difficult to find a suitable place for. Considering that the dimensions can be any, especially if you make it yourself, finding a corner for such a shelf will not be difficult, and it will take very little time to make it.

Types of shelf holders for glass shelves

A very important point in interior design with glass shelves is their correct hanging. Here you should consider the dimensions, weight of the shelf, expected load and type of fittings. Shelves can be hung in several ways:

• using holders for glass shelves;
• using brackets;
• through an aluminum profile;
• using wooden planks.

A quick and convenient way to attach glass shelves - using a wooden strip

Holders are recommended for use on narrow shelves with light loads. They have two parts: elements for fastening to the wall and parts that directly hold the shelf. There are quite a few types of such fittings - when choosing, you should pay special attention to those parts that will be attached to the wall. Some types have problems attaching to concrete surfaces.

Important! Holders of this type are suitable for shelves with a width of no more than 25 cm. If the length of the shelf exceeds 75 cm, two units will not be enough. In this case, the step between the holders should not be more than 45-50 cm.

If the shelf is wide and objects of significant weight are supposed to be stored on it, it is better to use brackets to mount it to the wall. Such a support can support large horizontal surfaces. Brackets for glass shelves on the wall can be made of metal and plastic. Holes must be prepared in the glass for attachment to the bracket.

A convenient and inexpensive type of fastening for glass shelves is a profile. It is made of lightweight aluminum. The holes for fixing to the wall in the right place must be made yourself (this is not at all difficult), the glass is inserted into the groove. This type of fastening is also recommended for narrow shelves.

An aluminum profile can be used to attach narrow glass shelves

You can fix the shelves using wooden slats. Grooves corresponding to the thickness of the shelf are pre-cut into them. The slats are attached to the wall using fittings, and glass is inserted into them. This method is convenient to use when installing shelves between cabinets, in niches, etc.

Importance of glass shelf fixture design

The method of fastening significantly affects the aesthetics of wall-mounted glass shelves. If a thin transparent glass surface is mounted on rough holders, then decorativeness will not be achieved - it will simply provide a place to store certain items.

It is better to hang narrow transparent and frosted glass shelves on fittings that protrude minimally in the vertical plane. Particular lightness is given to glass structures by holders in which the metal elements are additionally covered with glass. Fasteners for glass shelves should be selected taking into account the design style of the room. If there are forged objects in the room, massive metal brackets with monograms look quite appropriate. In domestic premises, these can be plastic console types.

An aluminum profile is suitable for implementing a design idea that involves making the shelf almost weightless. Wooden fixtures are harmonious in rooms where wood dominates as a finishing material. On clapboard walls, wooden slats can blend into the wall, thereby helping to draw attention only to the items located on the shelf.

The method of fastening the shelves should not only be reliable, but also look good

Particular care must be taken in selecting fasteners for colored glass shelves. It should be a stylish addition. Basic requirements to follow when choosing fastenings for glass shelves:

• avoid protruding fasteners against the background of the overall structure (with the exception of decorative brackets and wooden slats);
• choose fasteners whose material will preserve aesthetics in the conditions of the room where they will be used;
• It is imperative to follow the general design style of the room.

Only if the above recommendations are followed will the glass shelf complement the interior, and not just function as an additional work surface.

Varieties

Now glass shelves are created in a variety of variations. Look at the photos of glass shelves in the catalog of our resource. Suspended type options are connected to the ceiling surface using special cables.

The disadvantage of this method of fastening is that not everyone can afford such a highlight. But there are other types of fasteners that allow you to secure the shelf almost unnoticeably.

Such fasteners will not spoil the interior space, but will transform it.

Another modern option is glass corner shelves. With their help, you can make full use of the space of the room, also the corner space, because it is this space that is often overlooked.

The use of corner glass shelves provides a unique opportunity to use a corner space for storing items, but will not create a dump of useless things out of it, but, on the contrary, will transform it.

The most common room in which such shelves are used is the bathroom, because glass is not afraid of the influence of water in comparison, for example, with natural wood.

A corner shelf is good to use in the bathroom for storing bath accessories and towels.

If you want to arrange a corner-type glass shelf in a hall or corridor, then it will not only decorate the space, but will also become an excellent assistant for storing various things, and will also serve as a stand for equipment.

As for the bedroom, glass shelves would also be appropriate here, as they can perform the same role as in other living spaces.

Decoration of any interior: shelves for flowers on the wall

Glass is not affected by fungus, does not swell from dampness and is easy to clean. That is why this material is used to make flower shelves. The minimum glass thickness should not be less than 6 mm if you plan to place pots with a volume of 1 liter or more. Shelves for flowers can be either “single”, that is, designed for one pot, or long or consisting of several tiers. Transparent glass is often used for flower shelves. It transmits light as much as possible and allows you to focus attention on the plant. Using glass shelves, you can create real vertical and horizontal wall greenhouses in your room.

If flower pots will be placed on the shelf, its thickness should be at least 6 mm

Photos of flower shelves presented on the Internet demonstrate both ideas of various shapes and placement methods. Triangular shelves hung in the corner in several tiers perfectly decorate the room. An original design solution could be shelves mounted in an asymmetrical manner on a free wall. The rounded shape of one of the sides, dark glass and fastenings of the same color will allow you to create an interesting composition.

Using glass shelves attached to window frames, you can not only provide comfortable conditions for flowers, but also create the effect of an “indoor front garden.” It is better to install flowering plants on such shelves - this increases the chance of achieving a more decorative design. Structures can be arranged in a zigzag pattern, have surface bends, and protruding parts. The combination of glass and fresh greenery with multi-colored buds, if properly designed, will decorate an interior made in any style.

Helpful advice! When hanging glass shelves for flowers, special attention should be paid to mounting them to the wall. It can weaken under constant load.

Glass shelves in the living room: how not to overload the interior

The living room is a special room. It should have an atmosphere of comfortable solemnity, where everything is subordinated to a certain style, carefully selected and in its place. Despite the wide variety of glass shelves for the living room, they need to be selected with care and visualized correctly. Pictures of shelves in catalogs most often show a fragment of a room. In the overall interior, a specific model may look completely different.

In the living room, glass shelves can accommodate a minibar and glasses

Some mistakes made when decorating a living room with glass shelves:

1. Oversaturation. A large amount of glass brings an “office” feel to the room.
2. Dissimilar lighting in different parts of the room interferes with liberation and the creation of a trusting atmosphere.
3. Numerous shelves lined with souvenirs are an excess, indicating the owner’s lack of taste.

If the living room walls have a deep shade, it is recommended to complement the interior with transparent or frosted glass. It is advisable to decorate a separate living area with shelves. Monotonous models hung in several places “cheapen” the interior. If you use different types of shelves in one room, you need to divide the room into zones and maintain the design features of each of them.

Dark glass will be expressive on matte, pastel walls. A creative design solution can be colored glass on the wall of the same shade. The apparent “suspension” of objects placed on such shelves visually frees up space. Dark objects with clear outlines, located on transparent shelves against a light background of walls, also have a weightless effect.

It is not recommended to overload glass shelves in the living room with a large number of items

Shelves for flowers are also appropriate in the living room. Photos of interiors of various styles offer a wide variety of ways to design such hanging glass supports for plants, ranging from simple rectangular shapes to curly structures that wrap around the projections of walls.

Helpful advice! When arranging a living room, it is worth considering that flowers on glass shelves decorate the interior of such a room to a greater extent than plants on window sills.

Practicality and reasonable minimalism: glass shelves for the bathroom

It is almost impossible to avoid high humidity and water getting on surfaces in the bathroom. It is for this reason that glass is used as a material to decorate a bathroom: it does not warp, does not lose its aesthetics, and does not absorb moisture. Therefore, wiping is enough to make the surface dry.

Glass shelves are not afraid of high humidity, so they are the best solution for the bathroom

The glass shelves shown in the photo occupy a corner position in the bathroom, hung under the mirror, in niches. These are usually narrow structures that do not interfere with free movement around the room and the use of hygiene items and products. Wide shelves are recommended to be installed in niches where they occupy unclaimed space.

The angular arrangement of the shelves can be considered quite rational, but such placement requires compliance with certain safety conditions:

• hanging glass shelves above the bathroom is at a distance of 120 cm from the floor level;
• the shelf above the bathtub should not protrude more than 10 cm above the corner edge of the bathtub;
• It is better to raise shelves hung in a free corner (not above the bathroom) above the floor to a distance of 70-80 cm (average knee level).

Given the presence of slippery surfaces, the precautions listed above will help make the bathroom as safe as possible.

Chromed metal is best suited for attaching shelves in the bathroom.

When choosing a glass shelf for the bathroom, you should pay special attention to the fasteners. It is better if they are made of chromed metal. Unprotected metal surfaces are subject to active corrosion and significantly spoil the appearance of the shelves. It is rational to use plastic shelf holders. A humid environment does not affect its integrity and aesthetics.

Helpful advice! When buying shelves for the bathroom, it is better to choose frosted glass or a material with a visual splash effect. On such a surface, traces of drops are almost invisible.

For multimedia devices only: glass TV shelf

Modern flat-screen TVs are wall-mounted. At the same time, the owners, who care about coziness and comfort, creating a favorable interior, decorate the wall and model the composition. Quite often, wall-mounted glass shelves are used as interior elements.

The TV body in most cases is black. The glossy surfaces of dark glass shelves go well with it. Their length can either correspond to the width of the TV, or be larger or smaller. Rectangular narrow shelves of regular shape are in harmony with the strict lines of the body.

The TV shelf should be made of thick and durable glass

If you plan to place other devices on the shelf under the TV, it is better to choose thick glass and durable holders as the material. Before hanging such a shelf, it is necessary to determine where the device is connected to the power supply and hide the cords as much as possible. Otherwise, the design will lose its decorative effect. A glass shelf on the wall for a TV can also be made of transparent glass. This option is appropriate if furniture made from other materials, such as wood, is used to decorate the composition as a whole.

In order for a glass TV shelf to fulfill its decorative and functional purpose, you should not clutter it with unnecessary items: all kinds of vases, souvenirs and just random things.

Contrary to popular belief: glass bookshelf

Traditionally, books are stored on shelves. It’s convenient, each copy is available, you can read the author and title on the spine. Shelves can be either separate or combined into racks. Such structures are often made of wood; family libraries are carefully stored on them.

In everyday life, there is always a small number of books that are used frequently. For example, at work, for reading before bed to pick up smart thoughts. To store such everyday literature, you can hang glass bookshelves on the wall. They will become an interesting piece of furniture. They are especially relevant for small rooms, since they visually take up practically no space.

Books can be placed on original glass shelves

A shelf looks much more interesting if the books on it are arranged in a vertical position. Stacked in stacks, they evoke a sense of temporary residence. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a structure that allows the books to be held in a stable position. Photos of glass bookshelves posted on the Internet offer several options for solving this problem. The shelf is complemented by a small side on one side, which becomes a support for books. Glass bending also provides great opportunities. The design can have a curved shape with smooth flat surfaces, on which, due to the convexities, a stable position of the books will be ensured.

Helpful advice! Before purchasing a glass bookshelf designed for storing books, you must make sure that its size suits the intended purpose.

To make the interior brighter: illumination of glass shelves

Glass has a unique ability to reflect and refract light. Therefore, one of the methods for making glass shelves more decorative is to illuminate them. The most common modern lighting method is the use of LED strip. The main positive characteristics of this type of lighting are:

• clean, bright light;
• low cost;
• economical energy consumption;
• ease of installation.

You can illuminate glass shelves using LED strip

The photos proposed by the designers show shelves with lighting in different shades. They create a composition that brings a sense of celebration and promotes the manifestation of positive emotions. An LED strip emitting white light will highlight the dishes placed on the shelf. A neon shelf and light music in the bathroom will create the ideal environment for relaxation. To simplify installation of the lighting, you can use an aluminum profile that has space for placing a strip to attach the shelf to the wall.

Illuminated shelves visually enlarge the room and decorate the interior. However, when choosing this design, you should not overdo it. A large amount of light (and even different shades) can be irritating. A problem can also be too bright lighting, which is most unacceptable if the shelf is located at eye level.

An interesting addition to the interior are glass shelves with lighting made using spotlights. Most often, shelves located in niches and cabinets are decorated in this way. The vertically directed light flux focuses attention on objects located on the glass and serves as a soft night lamp.

We lighten cabinet furniture: glass shelves in a closet

Glass combines organically with other materials. In furniture catalogs, you can often see shelves with glass in wooden products. It can be used as decoration, or it can be a surface that bears the main load. These options look light, stylish and modern.

Cabinets with glass shelves and a mirror on the back wall visually expand the space

The glass used is thick - from 10 mm. If wood with preserved natural structure is used, transparent or frosted glass is preferable. Dark glass harmonizes more with gloss-laminated wood materials. Such shelves are attached to the wall with wooden parts, which makes the shelf holders invisible. The glass is inserted into a groove in the wood.

Glass shelves are also used in the manufacture of cabinets. Depending on the purpose of this type of furniture, the thickness and color of the glass are selected. For a kitchen cabinet where dishes are stored, it can be transparent, corrugated or patterned light glass 5-6 mm thick. Given the size of this cabinet, it's easy to imagine that with thicker shelves it would look rough.

For cabinets for other purposes, glass options with greater thickness can be used. The color is chosen either identical to the main material of the cabinet or contrasting. Glass shelves in this case can also be backlit. The safest option is LED strip.

A wooden cabinet or rack with glass shelves looks stylish and presentable

Helpful advice! To avoid mechanical damage during use, it is better to place strip lighting in the cabinet on the underside of the glass shelves.

LED lights

Depending on the location, the illumination of glass shelves can be at the end - along the lower line of abutment to the wall, at the top - for decorative lighting of objects, or along the perimeter. This is done using both strips and spotlights. Holders and brackets may have specialized recesses and trenches for installing LED lamps.

Light and interesting facade: shelves with glass doors

A special type of furniture is closed glass shelves on the wall. This furniture, in addition to the main ones, performs several more functions:

• protects objects located on it from dust penetration;
• creates a barrier to the influence of moisture on the contents of the shelf;
• is a more compact (compared to open shelves) storage space.

Such models are often used in the kitchen and bathroom, where the humidity level is quite high and there is a risk of burning particles settling on the shelves and their contents. Shelves with glass doors on the wall can be purchased not only for rooms with special conditions. Many people prefer to keep books, souvenirs (especially if they have a hard surface), and photographs closed. The doors are made of thin glass 4-6 mm, often transparent, so that the contents can be seen. Sometimes frosted, colored glass, with a pattern is used - depending on the requirements of the interior style.

Shelves with glass doors are the best option for kitchens and bathrooms

A rather important element of shelves with glass doors is fittings. It occupies an open position, therefore, it must be beautiful and have reliable functionality. The industry offers several hinge options. Almost all of them have a chrome surface, various shapes and sizes. Visible plastic inserts somewhat reduce the cost of the appearance of individual fastening structures. For wide shelves, it is better to prefer a sliding opening system. This makes using the doors comfortable and safe.

Shelf shapes

The shelves themselves can have not only the classic rectangular shape. They can be oval, carved, curved, angular, or have a bizarre shape. Glass shelves can be transparent, matte, colored, with the effect of frost or cracks.

In small spaces, glass shelves go perfectly with mirrors on the walls. Are there glass shelves in your home?

How to make an original glass shelf with your own hands

It is technically easy to make glass shelves for any room. There can be two ways:

• order all the necessary elements: glass (cut to size and processed), shelf holders,
• consumable fasteners - then assemble the structure;
• Do everything yourself, purchasing only accessories.

Let's focus on the second option. Required tools:

• glass cutter;
• belt sander (grain 120 units);
• impact drill (for attaching the shelf to the wall).

To make a shelf with your own hands, you can use ready-made glass of the desired size.

You can choose a design idea on the Internet in the photo: shelves for flowers, dishes, books, family heirlooms are presented in various options.

First of all, you need to mark the cut line on a sheet of glass with a marker, put a ruler (it will also act as a stop), and use a glass cutter to draw a smooth line with a confident movement. Then move the workpiece to the edge of the surface and, by pressing, break the glass along the cut line.

Important! This action should only be performed on a flat surface.

Then, using a grinder, you need to clean the ends of the future shelf. It is advisable to bring them to a round shape (except for the side inserted into the holder). During grinding, the glass must be moistened with water to prevent dust from flying around. Next, you should fix the holders, separate the parts for attaching to the wall and directly for the shelf. The wall part must be attached using dowels, which are included in the kit. Then the shelf needs to be inserted and clamped.

Fittings and fasteners for glass shelves must be durable and of high quality

The limitation of making a glass shelf at home is that tempered glass cannot be used as a material. It can only be cut in a specially equipped workshop.

Cutting glass and mirrors: important subtleties of technology

Making a glass shelf yourself significantly reduces its cost. And yet, many people prefer to entrust cutting and processing of glass or mirrors to a specialist. The production of glass shelves to order, that is, direct cutting, can be done in the following ways:

1. Manual. It is distinguished by its affordable price, roughness of the end surface, and limited types of cut lines.
2. Automatic cutting. A more expensive method is performed on a computer-controlled machine. It is distinguished by a smooth cutting surface and the manufacture of products of any configuration.
3. Laser cutting. Smooth cut, no gaps when joining, cutting of glass of almost any type is possible.

You can use a special knife to cut glass.

If there is a need to drill a hole in the glass (this is most often required by shelves that are mounted on brackets), it is safer to contact a specialist. In this process, the progressiveness of pressing on the drill is important. With a slight sharp movement, you can split the shelf - and then you will have to start all over again. When processing the ends of a glass shelf yourself, you need to monitor the shape of the roundness along the entire length: it should be the same. Irregularities, especially on thick glass, will appear visually and negatively affect the decorative effect of the shelf.

Living room

Glass shelves in the living room are a great place to display souvenirs.

In the hall, hanging glass shelves are needed not so much for practical purposes, but to complement the interior and show that the owners have taste.

You can put decorative plates, photographs, souvenirs, icons, books or even a TV on them - as long as they generally look good.

Glass shelves on the wall: how to ensure safety

Glass shelves occupy a special place in the interior. However, it would be wrong to say that they are absolutely safe. Glass, even the strongest, is more fragile than other materials used to make furniture (an exception may be plastic, but it is less dangerous). A few simple but important tips will help you make your glass shelves as safe as possible:

The glass shelf must be of sufficient thickness and properly secured

1. When choosing a shelf, special attention should be paid to the type and thickness of the glass, so that a metal goblet or ceramic jug that slips out of your hands does not violate the integrity of the surface.
2. Make sure the fastening is secure. With moderate pressure or a blow from below, the shelf should not tear out of the profile or shelf holders.
3. Place it in a convenient place. When actively used, the shelf must be accessible; ladders and stools are strictly unacceptable.
4. When hanging, be sure to ensure the correct level. Even a slight tilt can cause objects to fall from a smooth surface.
5. You should not use shelves that have defects in the form of cracks and chips, even if they are barely noticeable. Problems can be aggravated by certain mechanical influences and will lead to negative consequences.
6. When designing illuminated shelves, the priority should be the requirements for organizing electrical safety.

Beautiful glass shelves, made by yourself, made to order or purchased in stores, will bring aesthetic pleasure, decorate the interior and make it convenient to use the items stored on them. However, only if the shelves are correctly selected and hung.
