The edges are thicker than the shelves themselves, which adds to the charm of the bookcase. As it is positioned vertically, it can be a great option for small rooms, as it does not take up much space.

Mariano Furniture 3 niches bookcase


Unlike most models, the 3-niche bookcase stands out for being horizontally positioned. This makes it take up more space, however, it can be used to put big things, like a television.

Made of high definition MDF, the wall shelf is also a great decorative item, as it gives a charm to the environment. Also, you can position them however you like. However, this model is suitable for those who do not have many books to store. Because it's a narrow bookcase, it doesn't have a lot of space.

Diagonal Bookshelf Spine Siena Moon Furniture


Modernity and irreverence. These are the words that define the diagonal bookcase Spine Siena Móveis Moon. This model of bookcase appeared recently and is taking over the homes of people looking for different furniture.

As it is diagonal, the great advantage is that the books do not run the risk of falling over. They always remain in the same position. The MDF/MDP bookcase supports up to 50 kg and is ideal for storing several books. However, it is only good for books, as decorative items can slip and break.

Buying Guide
Now that you know what the best shelves for books are, let's talk about their advantages and disadvantages, where to buy them, and how much they cost. Plus, you'll know exactly what to look out for before purchasing your bookcase!

What are the advantages and disadvantages of a bookcase?
  • The most obvious advantage of the bookcase is that it stores your books, leaving them within reach whenever you need them. Also, the chance of books getting moldy is much less, as they are not locked in a cabinet.
  • Another advantage is that it's much easier to organize your books with bookshelves. If you keep them tucked away in different corners or in the closet, it can be difficult to find the one you're looking for. On the shelf, you can organize them by genre, author or book name.

It even offers a decorative look. In addition to being possible to place decorative objects on the shelves, the furniture itself makes the room more charming and beautiful. You can find many beautiful models that match your living room or bedroom!

Keeping your home organized will be easier with a bookcase. If you are a frequent reader and/or love decorating, this is always a great option. In addition, there are several very affordable models of bookcase, so there is no need to pay a very high amount.

Among its disadvantages is the space that most models take up. It is possible to buy shelves that are attached to the wall, but floor shelves need their own space.

Another downside is the dust they usually gather. To prevent your books from getting worn out over time, always take them off the shelf and wipe them down with a dry cloth.

Benefits
  • Help in organizing the house
  • Your books are protected and organized
  • They also store decorative items
  • Most models are low cost
  • They are part of the decoration of the environment


Disadvantages
  • occupy space
  • Need to be cleaned often



How to organize books on the shelf?
  • The bookcase is one of the best places to store your books. They are more easily protected and organized.
  • When purchasing your bookcase, a few measurements will help keep the books intact and the decor even more beautiful. To make the most of the space, you can place large niches under a window, for example.

For a change, there is the possibility that you can stack the books instead of always keeping them side by side. On top of the pile you can place a decorative object.

Did you know that books were not always arranged vertically as we do today?
Previously, books were stored on shelves horizontally and slanted, which made it difficult to see and did not allow the storage of many volumes.

It wasn't until after the Great Depression that shelves and bookcases started arriving in people's homes. Thus, the most varied ways of ordering them emerged.

Cleaning bookshelves and books daily is essential for health, especially for those with allergies. Always put in a few books to avoid dust accumulation. Also, wipe frequently.

These are some of the decorations you can make with bookshelves in your home:

Books standing and lying
Many people end up leaving the books all the same, standing. This is a more classic way to decorate your bookcase. However, if you want to innovate, you can mix books lying down and standing up.

At the ends, keep two or three books vertically. In the middle, you can put them in a stack. Each pile can have a different number of books, to make it more decorative.

By size
Another way to place your books on the shelf is in ascending or descending order of size. This arrangement looks great on shelves with straight shelves.

Object mix
In addition to books, you can place various decorative items on the shelf. How about mixing your books with flowers, picture frames, candles, travel souvenirs, etc? This will leave the shelf with your face and give a charming touch to the environment.

Minimalist decor
For those who don't like too full and “polluted” decorations, there is the option of leaving the environment more clean. This decoration is ideal for those who don't have so many books.

Organization by color
For those who have a lot of books, it will be easy to organize them by color. This makes the shelf super cute and charming. On each shelf, organize items according to their color palette.

How much?
  • As we've already talked about the advantages and disadvantages of the bookcase, most models are affordable. Nowadays, it's super easy to find a bookcase that suits your taste and your pocket!
  • From R$ 100 it is already possible to find several models of shelves. However, the most complete and quality models cost around R$ 250 to R$ 300. There are also much more expensive models, costing more than a thousand reais, made of wood, but they are few and far between.
  • Where to buy?
  • You can find several models of bookcases for books in the best furniture stores. If you want to buy yours in the physical store, you can find it in places like Etna, Tok&Stok, Casas Bahia, among others.
  • For those who want to see a wider range of models and prices, there is the option to buy online. You can find your shelf on sites like Amazon, Mercado Livre, Mobly and Lojas Americanas.

Purchasing Criteria: Key Features for Evaluating a Bookshelf

Since there are many types of bookcases available in stores, you will need to know what sets them apart. These are some of the features you should consider before choosing your model:

  • type of shelf
  • design
  • Material
  • Measures
  • Finishing

Shelves or niches
Each of these items needs to be taken into account at the time of purchase. Still in doubt? Read on to learn more about each of them.

type of shelf
When buying your bookcase, you will come across a huge variety of models, which can end up confusing consumers. First, there are two main types of bookcases:

Fixed or fixed shelf
The fixed shelf works like a shelf. You choose how many you want and screw them on the wall. This model has several advantages, such as saving space and the fact that you choose how to display them on the wall.

However, there are also some disadvantages. The first is that fixed shelves are not usually very spacious. Therefore, you will need to purchase several if you have a lot of books. Also, because they are fixed, you will need to drill into the wall to install the bookcase.

mobile bookcase
The biggest advantage of the mobile bookcase is that it is easily transported to other rooms or when moving. In addition, they are usually more spacious, ideal for those who have several books and want to decorate.

design
After choosing between these two main types, you'll still have to decide between several different design types:

classic model

This is the best-selling model in stores and most common in homes. The classic bookcase has a rectangular shape and usually comes with at least 4 shelves.

For being classic, there is no mistake with this model, it is the “little black dress” of the shelves. As the shelves are straight, you can easily store books and decorative objects.

Hack shelf
If you're looking for a shelf and a hack, why not combine the useful with the pleasant? This shelf model is used both to place the television and to store books and decorative objects.

Being horizontal, it needs more space. Also, it is important to remember that she cannot store a large volume of books.

modular bookcase
This type of bookcase has gained increasing strength in Brazilian homes. For being more modern and irreverent, it is ideal for those who want to innovate in decoration.

There are several types of modular bookcases, but in general they are divided into modules that are positioned in different places. This bookcase draws attention and leaves your home with a touch of fun.

diagonal bookcase
This is also a more “different” model. The diagonal bookcase makes your home more modern and is super charming!

The downside of this type of bookcase is that it cannot hold decorative items, as they can fall and break. But if you have several volumes of books to keep, it might be ideal.

Material
Once you've decided which type of bookcase you want, it's time to choose the material. The vast majority of affordable shelving is made of MDF, but there are also other materials used in shelving. These are the main ones:

wood or bamboo
Bookcases made of wood are more traditional choices. In the past, this was the most common material used in bookcases.

The good thing about wooden shelves is that they combine with different styles of decoration, and add a touch of elegance to the room where they are located.

Shelves made of this material are a little more expensive than those made of MDF. However, it is possible to find a wooden bookcase that is affordable.

Metal

Most metal bookshelves have a more traditional, office-like look. If you are looking for practicality and a good price, this material will be very useful.

It is also possible to find more charming and colorful metal shelves. It depends on your taste and preference.

MDF

MDF is a reconstituted wood panel. In other words, it is produced with wood fibers glued together. Its quality will depend a lot on the manufacturer.

Despite this, MDF is usually stable and absorbs inks easily. With this material, it is easier to shape furniture to make them more charming, such as rounded parts and contours.

MDP
This material is often used in conjunction with MDF in various bookcases. Like MDF, MDP also has good ink stability and absorption. However, it is not as malleable as MDF, being more used for straight-line furniture.

Measures
One of the main factors you should look at before buying a bookcase is measurements.

Many people live in small houses and apartments, with little space for furniture. However, that doesn't have to stop you from purchasing your bookcase. Before choosing yours, carefully measure the space in which it will be. Sales sites show furniture measurements.

In addition, you can choose from three main types of shelving to suit the space you have available: horizontal, vertical and shelf style.

If you are short on space, prefer vertical or fixed bookcases, which you can hang on the wall. If the space is large, horizontal shelves can also be an option.

Finishing
We have two main types of finish for a bookcase: lacquer and laminate.

  • Lacquer . It has a smooth and shiny look. For being more beautiful and charming, this finish draws a lot of attention at the time of purchase. However, it is more expensive and easily scratched.
  • Laminate . It's practical and more affordable. However, keep an eye out: this finish cannot be exposed to the sun, as it creates stains on the shelf.

Shelves or niches
Bookshelves often come with shelves or niches for you to place your books or decorative items. The biggest difference between them is the visual aspect. However, they can also make a difference in the organization of the environment.

The niches, being smaller, make it easier to arrange your objects. If you prefer, you can use each niche for a specific purpose, one for books, one for photo frames, etc. This way, your bookcase is more tidy and organized. In addition, the niches configure a more relaxed look to the environment.

Shelves, on the other hand, are more traditional and present, mainly, in vertical shelves. They are more practical for those who have a lot of books. However, nothing prevents you from using them, too, to store decorative items.

How to choose a dining table


My godmother wanted to change the dining room and called me asking if I had already blogged about choosing a dining table.

Did not have.

How not??????

So much doubt: shape, size, materials, with feet, central base?how-to-choose-dining-table

How to choose a dining table
If I could give just 1 advice to anyone who wants to change the dinner table, it would be this:

Choose a dining table that works for your lifestyle TODAY, not a lifestyle you'd like to have.

You don't need an 8-seat table if you never see anyone, get it?

Follow these steps so you don't make a mistake when choosing your dinner table:

1. Accept your space

If your space is small, embrace it and prefer to create a cozy corner rather than trying to squeeze a large table into it.

Use a low table pendant or a floor lamp and pillows to accent the intimate corner character.

2. Use what you already have
Before withdrawing your credit card, ask yourself: Do you really need to change the table? If only changing the chairs, or some chairs does not solve?

Remember, dining tables are expensive furniture and are always half hidden by chairs. Often changing chairs for more charming models already changes the face of the decor.

Not to mention that the chairs can fulfill a double function, serving as a seat in the living area.where-spend-where-save-decor-img1

3. Decide which format is best suited to your space
If you've decided that the table really should be replaced, the first step is to determine which format is best suited to your space.

Rectangular
  • The rectangular table is the most common and most used type. It is also the best format when you need to accommodate more than 4 people.
  • A rectangular table works best if your space also has this shape.

Round
  • A round table works well in small spaces and square-shaped spaces.
  • The round table creates a more cozy and intimate atmosphere and brings people together, which is why it is the best format for a small group (up to 6 people).
  • A very large round table, however, puts too much distance between people and makes it difficult to serve.

Square
  • The square table, recently in fashion for being visually beautiful, seats 8 people but only works in generous spaces.
  • For 4 people, a round table works best.

Oval
  • The oval table is very similar to the rectangular table but takes up less space because of the rounded corners.

The oval table, as well as the round model, makes it easy to pull out a chair and accommodate another guest when necessary.how-to-choose-table-dining-shapes

4. Set the table size considering comfort

Squeezing meals, bumping elbows with the neighbor or squished between the table and the wall, nobody deserves it, right?

Consider that a person occupies 60 to 75 cm when sitting at the table.

Round tables with tops from 100 to 120cm in diameter are the best choice for small spaces and accommodate 4 to 6 people.

A small rectangular table from 80×120 to 140cm also accommodates 6 people but needs more space to circulate around it.

Before buying your table, measure your space. So:

  • Cut out pieces of newspaper the size of the table you are considering purchasing and place on the floor in the dining area.
  • Leave 70 to 90cm free (90cm is ideal, less than 70cm not recommended) between the table and other furniture (such as sideboards and buffets) and walls.
  • If the table is to the side of a passage, the ideal is to leave at least 100cm free to allow one person to pass comfortably while another is seated.
  • Also measure the space occupied by the chairs to make sure that the model you have chosen is not too bulky for the table. Prefer to save space with chairs "dry" or using a bench on one side of the table.

5. Choose the design
The design of the table should be chosen taking into account the design of the chairs. Place the table next to the chairs before buying to make sure the combination is harmonious.

  • The balcony is to leave the look together, choose 2 different models of dining chair, 1 with arms. So, these chairs can be taken to the living room and positioned in front of the sofa to create a charming chat area when you are entertaining friends.
  • If you choose different chairs, the dining table can be a simple model without too much Rococo.

Come see how to mix table and chairs from different models as a designer.


Last tip: Prioritize comfort always.

Choose beautiful chairs that make you and your guests totally comfortable for those long Sunday lunches.

Check the height of the seats so that no one bumps their knees on the tabletop or has the top by their neck when sitting down. On average 45cm is a good seat height for a top 75cm high.

Make sure no one is disturbed by the table legs. In small spaces, a table with a central foot is more comfortable than one with 4 supports.

The right dining table may be the missing detail for you to finally become the great hostess you've always dreamed of. Ready to receive the compliments?

Benches in the dining room give more space


Check out some models of benches to use in the dining room, which ensure better use of the internal space of the environment.

One of the golden rules in today's decor is to make the best use of all the space available in each room, in a charming, creative and functional way.

This optimization of space inside houses and apartments is, above all, a necessity, as real estate has become smaller, to meet the demands of housing in large urban centers.


And one of the ways to ensure more space inside each room is to invest in differentiated furniture, which offer more advantages when it comes to improving each available corner in the house.

Tips for using stools in the dining room
One of these pieces of furniture is the bench, which can be used in the living room or on the porch of the house, and which is now also present in the dining room.

  • Here the main tip is that the benches allow you to take advantage of the useful space around the dining table, compared to using a set of chairs.
  • For this, it can be manufactured in numerous models, such as the wooden or upholstered one, which can be used all the way around the table, or together with some chairs that are already part of the set.
  • It can also be sold with the table, which allows for more compact benches, which after use can be stored under the table.
  • Another tip is the side benches, which are fixed to the wall, allowing more space in small or compact environments.
  • In this way, the dining room will become a much more inviting place, thanks to the use of stools at the dining table.

Dining Room: Tips on Choosing Your Table and Chair Set


The table has always been the protagonist of the dining room. Along with the chairs, it composes the successful set of meetings between family and friends, who come together to enjoy that tasty food, accompanied by emotional stories.

It may sound easy, but many people struggle to choose the ideal table and chairs model for the dining room. Thinking about it, we have developed some tips that will help you in this choice.

TABLE FORMAT
The first thing you need to know to start planning your dining room is: how many people will be seated at the table? And right now you have to think about the day-to-day and not the exception. If your family is small, it's better to improvise on holiday days rather than having a large permanent table that will take up space in the room at all times.

The format of the room is also a crucial point and makes all the difference. In addition to the table, you should think about circulation spaces and complementary furniture, such as sideboards, buffets or potted plants.

Rectangular tables can be used loosely in the environment, allowing people to circulate around them. Or you can leave one end against the wall and when you need more space, just move the table away and put a chair on the end and you're done.


Rectangular table minimum sizes:

  • For 04 people – at least 1.30m in length;
  • For 06 people – at least 1.50m to 1.60m;
  • For 08 people – at least 1.80m.
 

Round tables are generally suitable for small or medium environments, and are suitable for few people. When it's done in the large size, it ends up distancing people who are sitting. The interesting thing about the round ones is that when you need more space, you can always fit another chair.

The square tables are good for large families, for 02 people, for example, it is very large. So they are good options for medium and large environments, in addition to being excellent for contemporary environments.

FINISHES
Now talking about finishes, tables with solid or laminated wood tops have a very nice touch that combine with various styles.

Glass tops are resistant, easy to clean and practical in everyday life, especially for those with children.

CHAIRS
Despite the table being the highlight of your dining room, you need to be careful when choosing chairs. Depending on the model you choose to compose the environment, they can draw more attention than the table. So when choosing the chairs, remember that they will add a touch of personality to the set.

To choose an ideal set of chairs for your dining room, don't just think about the shape and finish of the table. Also take into account the decor of the entire environment and practicality.

STYLES AND MODELS

The universe of chairs is huge. It has models for all tastes: natural style, classic, romantic, industrial, contemporary, traditional, among others.

If you want a more sober environment, you can choose the same finish for the table and chairs. This will make the pieces not stand out so much, and will leave the environment more classic.

If you prefer a more contemporary environment, it is possible to mix the finishes and colors of the chairs. You can also mix the style of chairs around the table with different models but with the same color. Or the same models in different colors.

Important tip: if you are going to use 02 different models, always choose to place an equal model at the ends and the other along the table.

Of all the models you can find, you can't give up the chair to be FIRM, that's why analyzing the chair's resistance is the most important thing when choosing. Always observe the attachment points between the feet, the seats and the backrest.

Kitchen Pantry - Inspirations and How to Choose, Optimize and Organize


Knowing how to organize and how to assemble the perfect kitchen pantry requires some very important steps. After all, it is not enough to go around “accumulating” food in any cupboard in your kitchen. On the contrary: accumulating never fits with an organized and optimized house, right?

Thus, there is nothing better than a guide with important tips to build the perfect pantry for your home to achieve the result you want. For this reason, we invite you to follow our article to learn, once and for all, how to build the best kitchen pantry that meets all your needs.

How to assemble the perfect kitchen pantry
To assemble the perfect kitchen pantry, we need, first of all, to think about the space in your home for this purpose. For that, consider our tips below:

consider space
When we talk about space, we're not just talking about the space inside a possible pantry cabinet, per se. But yes, we are talking about your kitchen space . After all, having a small kitchen doesn't mean you can't have your own pantry.

For that, therefore, you need to plan – and very well – your pantry. Made-to-measure furniture is the most appropriate option, especially for those who live in an apartment. Thus, if you use (or still use) a common kitchen cupboard to organize food, it's time to think about the space in your kitchen. So plan as follows:

  • How do you organize food today? If they are in several cabinets, the best way to organize them is to take them all out and place them on the table. Afterwards, organize all the dishes and kitchen utensils in the same cabinet, as much as possible (in an organized way, ok?). This way you will have a vision of the possible space that “left over” in your kitchen. That is, the space that is not occupied by household appliances or utensils. Now it's time to see how much space food takes up. And, with that, calculate the width and height of your pantry.
  • Size needs to keep up with shelf usage! In other words, don't make the mistake of thinking that you need a huge closet, as you've been using for other utensils. After all, we are talking about food, right? So, remember that custom furniture can have many shelves, of medium height, large and small. That way it fits a lot more stuff , in a much smaller space .
  • Consider usage needs
  • It's no use investing in a huge pantry if it's not part of your real need. That is, it's no use making a huge closet to store food if you have lunch and dinner out. Because if you have dinner and lunch out, it means that your consumption in the market is much lower, right? Then create a compartment that serves as a stock for what you actually consume during the month. That way, with the space left over, you can use it for something else in your kitchen.

Optimizing space in your kitchen pantry
Now that you've planned the size and location of your pantry, it's time to plan your interior and organization. In order, in this way, to have the expected result.

pots and baskets
Always use, as far as possible, pots and baskets. They will serve as great organizers. Especially if the pots are transparent and labeled!

Don't overdo your shopping!
As we mentioned in the previous topic, learn to organize your purchases and, with this, not exceed your need for consumption and space used for pantry. This way you not only save space, you also save time to market and money.

Kitchen pantry - How to organize
Let's learn, now, how to organize your pantry, regardless of the size of yours.

Cleaning
When you think about purchasing a new kitchen pantry , you also need to think about cleaning it. Choose quality materials so that the cleaning procedure is quick and easy. And besides, it's always important to keep the pantry clean before organizing the interior. That being the first step on how to organize your kitchen cabinet.

Organizing pots
As we've already mentioned, organizing pots can be a great addition to your pantry. After all, you'll be able to get rid of all that space that packaging can end up using in your closet. In addition, you will have a better view of the products, optimizing your time. So, remember to always use transparent and labeled jars.

Separate by "sector"
When organizing your pantry, remember to separate food by “sector”. For example, gravy with sauce, pasta with pasta, cereal with cereal, and so on. This makes it easier to find what you need.

Forward labels
Another way to make your pantry more streamlined and organized is to place the labels straight ahead. Those products that cannot be stored in a jar, such as ready-to-eat sauce, need to be organized with the label on the front. Again, time saved.

And the validity?
Finally, a very important factor, especially when we talk about food: validity. Whenever you go shopping and, when you get home, keep those groceries, remember to put the “oldest” foods forward and the newly purchased ones further back. Thus, those closer to expiration are more accessible and will be consumed first, avoiding waste.

Now that you know everything about the kitchen pantry, it's time to discover the best models to be inspired and create the best space for your home. See the incredible inspirations we've separated for you:

The stainless steel restaurant cart is one of the most important items in a professional kitchen or industrial kitchen, allowing to organize work, streamline transport within the work area, facilitate internal logistics and avoid accidents.

In restaurants and industrial kitchens, carts are true wildcards, used to transport products from receiving to the displacement of different items within the professional kitchen, such as containers, vats (used in ovens, refrigerators and cold rooms), ready-made dishes, thermos bottles, pans, cauldrons, plastic boxes, sacks, bread pans, trays, barbecue, in addition to draining and transporting dishes.

It must have a sufficient slope towards the drains, not allowing the water to become stagnant. In areas that allow existence, the drains must be siphoned, and the grids must have devices that allow closing.

CARE IN TRANSPORTING YOUR INDUSTRIAL KITCHEN
  • The means of transporting food intended for human consumption, refrigerated or without refrigeration, must guarantee the integrity and quality in order to prevent contamination and deterioration of the products.
  • Always take into account that equipment, furniture and utensils that come into contact with food must be made of materials that do not transmit toxic substances, odors or flavors to them, as established in specific legislation. They must be kept in an adequate state of conservation and be resistant to corrosion and repeated cleaning and disinfection operations.
  • It is prohibited to keep or transport in the same compartment, ready-to-eat foods, and other foods and foreign substances that could contaminate or corrupt them; with the exception of foods packaged in hermetically sealed, impermeable and resistant containers, as long as they are not toxic products.
  • When the nature of the food so requires, it should be placed on shelves and platforms, removable when necessary, in order to avoid damage and contamination.
  • It is not allowed to transport food together with people and animals.
  • Hygiene and disinfection methods must be adequate to the characteristics of the products and transport vehicles.
  • The materials used to protect and secure the cargo (ropes, tarpaulins, plastics and others) must not constitute a source of contamination or damage to the product, and must be disinfected together with the transport vehicle. Loading and/or unloading must not represent a risk of contamination, damage or deterioration of the product and/or food raw material.
  • The means of transporting the prepared food must be sanitized, and measures taken to ensure the absence of vectors and urban pests.
  • Sanitation operations must be carried out by employees who are proven to be capable and frequently to guarantee the maintenance of these conditions and minimize the risk of contamination of the food.
