Guest Picks: Corner Cabinets and Shelves From Simple to Showstopping
After moving into a new house, I noticed a naked corner in the breakfast space that needed attention. I found the solution in a glass-front corner cabinet that my family has owned for years. It tucked right in and provided just the presence that the semiopen room needed.
With an open-concept floor plan, it can be hard to define boundaries and make each room its own. There were actually several spots in the house where I could have put that particular cabinet. It has also moved to every home with us and has landed in multiple rooms. Furniture with that kind of flexibility is a rarity. And the whole scenario got me thinking about corner cabinets, so I decided to explore and see what was out there.
I love a piece of furniture with purpose and functionality — and, of course, it has to be aesthetically pleasing as well. There are plenty of options specifically for those awkward corners or tight spaces, and I’ve found 20 that run the gamut from bookshelf unit to linen cabinet. I found a bit of everything, from fancy upscale pieces to budget-friendlier options — a little something for everyone. — Erin from Two Story Cottage
