Bubbi Wavy Wall Shelf - Yellow

This is a wall shelf with a sense of fun: a long ledge set across a back panel whose top and bottom edges run in soft waves, painted with broad blocks of yellow spaced along its length. It is made from MDF, a dense, smooth board that takes paint evenly, and it measures 80cm long, 17cm wide and 22.5cm tall. That length gives room for a good row of picture books or a line of small toys. Because the back panel rises above and drops beneath the ledge, the shelf reads as a decorative piece on the wall even when it is empty.

We see it first in a nursery or a child's bedroom, holding favourite books with their covers facing out, stacking toys and a few keepsakes. Its maximum load is 5KG, so it is made for lighter things: picture books, small wooden toys and treasured bits and pieces rather than a packed row of heavy hardbacks. The wavy outline sits just as happily in a sitting room, hung high to give ornaments and greetings cards a cheerful home. Hung one over another, two or three make a playful display, the waves repeating row after row.

The MDF is finished in a water based paint, which gives the yellow a smooth, even surface, and the shelf weighs 3.64KG. It fixes to the wall, and the maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download, so you can read through how it goes up before you begin. For styling, give it a few pieces with space between them rather than filling it from end to end: the waves show best when they are not hidden, and one bright object set against each yellow block keeps the rhythm going.
