NewsUSA) - Start 2010 with a bang: organize your home and work space! Take the first step by installing shelving that is specifically suited to maximize your space. To successfully clear out and keep out clutter, you need storage space. The folks who operate
www.Shelving.com and
www.TheShelvingStore.com have been providing shelving and storage fixtures for over fifty years. They know that one size does not fit all when it comes to maximizing your available storage space.
When measuring the space for your shelving project, go up as high as you can. If you have a 9-foot ceiling, use shelving units
that are 8-feet high. If you have large and bulky items to store, use shelves that are as deep as your space will allow. Shelving units that are 24-inch, 30-inch, 36-inch deep or even deeper provide much-needed room.
The more shelves you have in each unit, the greater your storage space per square feet of density. For example, a 24-inch-deep by 48-inch-wide shelving unit will occupy 8 square feet of floor space. If you erect a shelving unit 8 feet high and add eight shelves to the unit, you would create 128 square feet of shelving space in just 8 square feet of floor space. Think higher, deeper, wider and add as many shelf levels as possible if you want to get the most density out of your floor space.
Be organized (always), be practical (keep it simple) and get some functional shelving. Wall-mounted decorative shelving is a wonderful complement to just about any room, and they create shelving space where free-standing shelving wouldn't be appropriate. Consider glass shelving for a more contemporary design, or wood grain shelves for a softer, warmer tone.
Whatever your interior design tastes, there are shelves that will satisfy your desire for form and function. With decorative wall-mounted shelving, you can display your prized items like trophies, pottery and pictures in frames. Your home and office should reflect your personality, so choose personalized displays. Using the right shelf will get you on your way to being organized.
An efficient home is a happy home. Start 2010 happy and organized with the help of The Shelving Store.

Get organized for Holidays
I spend last evening searching for the perfect light to hang over my dining room table , I have spent many nights doing this , actually I found a lovely lantern , and it may be a contender ,
But I think I may be {happy with the one I've got !} , it is one of a kind , I love the clean look of the grey paint and metal flowers with their mirrors { I added those , stroke of genius} but I thought I needed to bring it up a notch and while wrapping the girls gifts today I wrapped the candle sleeves with this pretty paper , these things just come to me...
while at Home Depot the other day Sophie and I spied this package of MAGNETIC crystals , magnetic , uh huh , place them where ever you like , move them around , no need for holes....
I think this light is staying for a while , and I think I want another package of crystals too ....
