Stylish Stick On Shelves Will Add Storage To The Dead Space In Your Kitchen

No matter how your kitchen is configured or how spacious it may be, it's uncommon to hear about having too much storage available. More likely, is that you wish that your kitchen had a little more room for storing supplies. If this sounds familiar, there's a simple solution that makes the most of dead space in your kitchen — best of all, it requires no hardware or expertise to install.

Instagram influencer @Jodie.thedesigntwins shows how she uses a two-pack of PAVSTINE Acrylic Floating Shelves to organize a number of goods for her kitchen. The shelves are designed to be convenient: all you have to do is decide where you want to hang them, remove the protective cover from the adhesive, and then stick the shelf to the wall. Once positioned, they should be given 12 hours to cure prior to use for best performance. They come in both black and white, making them a versatile option for most kitchens. The shelves themselves measure 12 inches long by 3.9 inches in depth, allowing them to hold items of various shapes and sizes. In the kitchen, you can load them up with clear glass jars holding your dry foods, aesthetically appealing tea tins, or even decorative tea cups or vases. If you're not entirely sure where to use them, you could place them on any small wall that is otherwise underutilized. They can also bring additional storage to the side of overhanging cabinets.

The possibilities for using these stick-on shelves in the kitchen are nearly limitless and they are pretty well reviewed, too, but what can you anticipate from them in terms of performance? In terms of reviews, these acrylic shelves have a 65% 5-star review average. Customers praise them for their ease of installation, as well as how nice they look once on the walls. Product specifications state that each shelf is capable of holding up to 10 pounds of weight, so long as they are installed on a suitably smooth surface, such as tile, smooth wood, or glass. That being said, the shelves will not stick properly on a wet surface, or on wallpapered walls.

One positive review writes, "Love the ease of putting these shelves up, just peel the back and stick! I bought for above my shower to store body scrub and it has worked perfectly! Seems to be pretty durable and holds two sugar scrubs and a hair mask." Other reviews echo the sentiment of this buyer, but a couple do raise concerns about the condition of a wall after removing one of these shelves. A one-star review states that the user removed the shelf one minute after installation to check for potential wall damage, which resulted in the paint being pulled off. This could be a concern for individuals who are installing the shelves on drywall and might not want them as permanent fixtures.
