Why hide your beautiful dishware and cooking tools behind closed (cabinet) doors? Floating or open shelving kitchen shelves not only help organize your bowls, baskets, plates, and teacups, they make them into functional works of art. Mix and match your entire collection or organize the pieces by color for a clean, modern display. By keeping your favorite items out in the open, you’re more likely to grab that platter or pitcher—not just for special occasions but for everyday meals. Whether it’s one long shelf or a stack of three, these open shelving kitchen ideas are sure to make a big impact.
