We recently hung our honeycomb shelves. My dad and grandpa hung them. These shelves were a DIY project last year here on the blog (see the original post here!), and I purchased a kit from Josh (he still sells individual shelves).
I love the unique shape and texture they add to our space. They make me smile literally every time I walk up the stairs. I also love that they create a display that will be easy to change up from season to season!I still have many more empty walls to fill, but this is a little peek at our progress. Next up, a gallery wall!

Love these!!!!!
I love these – the flowers and little potted plants look great in their new homes, and I also love the detail of the photos taped up with pretty washi tape.
It looks so amazing, too bad I’m not all that handy!

I absolutely love how you taped up pictures within the combs alongside cacti and vases of flowers. Such an incredible combination. Not to mention the shelves themselves!

Looks great! Such a different alternative to regular shelves! Great job π
I love these! I need a free wall in my house to put some of these up. What a great idea, and the styling is so cute too!
This is so wicked, I absolutely love it! It looks so great with all the natural light, too. Definitely going to look into this.

Very nice, thanks for sharing.
I can’t WAIT to make some honeycomb shelves for our soon-to be apartment in Hawaii, how quaint! I also love all the fresh lil succulents you places in there, they feel so fresh and add a lot of brightness and life to the area.
oh these look so lovely! I agree that I love the texture they bring…so unique π
This paper cactus is hilarious! Trying to blend in and stuff.

I’m going to put my hubby to work right away on these beautiful shelves. May have to downsize and do the itty bitty NYC version;) Happy Spring!
That’s really cute. That would work well in a small space, like my apartment.

My oh my! This is so amazing! Usually, I’m all for classic and traditional… but this is pretty cool!

This is so awesome! it looks absolutely beautiful in your home!
I love these shelves. I actually tried to built them on my own when scott was at work and i cracked two of them, ha!! a little wood filler will fix them but just a reminder i’m not as handy as you and josh!
Love these shelves!

I really like this. I’d love to have them in a bright color!
Beautiful Elsie! You are such an inspiration! You have the best taste in design and style.
These are awesome!! My husband is a carpenter and I just texted him a picture of these! This needs to happen in our house.
i still love these shelves so much! and intend to make some for myself once i get the chance:-) x
these are absolutely amazing!! i would love to make my own!
I heart shelves!! These are the most original that I’ve seen in a while. I love your choices of greenery as well! This area looks so alive especially right next to that wonderful little window that lets off so much light! Keep the ideas comin!
That really looks good; it’s so homely and unique, exactly what a house should be! I’m currently renting, but I love saving these photos for inspiration for when I finally do have my own house. Lucky you!!

And I think,as well as you said,it`s a very versatile shelf,which by the way,I would love to see,how it changes through the year!

They look really fantastic! Might have to convince my husband to make some for us.
i love this! you girls always have the best ideas! this is so cute!
Deana, from birdsandoxfords
love them,and they save much space for us
I just love the honeycomb shelf look!! It’s so beautiful and I love how you ladies added the flowers!! =)

Why do you need your father and grandfather to hang your shelves for you? Women can be carpenters, too, you know. And shelf hanging is pretty darn simple.
They are so lovely!! I love the styling with all of the green especially.

Gorgeous! I love this shelf, and I so need to find a way to include something similar in my new house! I love how you’ve styed it, as well… The photos taped to the walls and plants make me smile!
It looks so nice! I love it π

Gorgeous idea! I am so into honeycomb shapes right now and would love to spend a day crafting this for my apartment. I even included it in a new article on my site, “11 Creative Projects to Make Your House a Home.”
Thank you for the inspiration!!

What a gorgeous feature! This is such a good storage idea as well. I struggled with finding storage in my small apartment so I appreciate an article like this. I used Furnishr.com to help me solve my dilemma. They were so helpful in working with the dimensions of my space to come up with a functional interior look. I truly recommend their service.
