    DIY or Hire Out : Kitchen Open Shelving

    Open shelving is all the rage and for good reason. Suzannah and I  have both done open shelves in our kitchens. Heck, I even have a whole open shelving guide to walk you through the process. But we are taking it much deeper on this episode of the Your Home Story podcast. We are talking about how kitchen open shelving can be made of wood, metal, or glass and can be floating or mounted with basic or beautiful brackets. There are several kinds you can DIY, and some to consider ordering or getting custom.

    1. My sturdy tote bag that I'm in love with. I bought a second one because I love it so much. I've been mainly using it for groceries but have also used it for pool days and going to the lake.
    2. Magnolia’s technical guide for open shelving
    3. My open shelving guide
    4. Pre-fab metal shelving unit
    5. Restaurant-style floating look shelf
    6. Suzannah’s tutorial for how to install open shelves (over tile, even)
