Bakers Rack – Not Just for the Kitchen Anymore

When one thinks about where to place a bakers rack the very first thought is, of course, in the kitchen to hold various pots and pans. When you think bakers rack you think kitchen. But limiting your thinking to just the kitchen limits the versatility of these attractive pieces of storage furniture. The baker's rack can really be used anywhere in the home with a bit of foresight and imagination. You can use a baker's rack in a three season room as an attractive way to hold a small television or a collection of house plants. In fact, in a small office or den that might not support a larger entertainment unit, a bakers rack with doors makes the perfect compromise to hold your entertainment components.

Consider, as well, a bakers rack with drawers as extra storage in a bathroom – your main bath or a guest bath, either could benefit from one of these beautiful pieces. Using rolled guest towels and decorative storage jars for things like cotton balls, soaps and q-tips can make a bakers rack an attractive piece in the bathroom. The only real limit on the useability of one of these pieces is your imagination.

Using a Baker's Rack as Decoration

Consider using your baker's rack as a display to add a bit more decoration and flair to a room. Of course decorating with a baker's rack takes a certain bit of flair. Too much on its shelves and it will appear cluttered and confused. The best way to tackle this is to choose an item as a focal point and place in in the center of the top shelf of your baker's rack and then put a handful of coordinating items around it to draw the eye without becoming overwhelming. Be certain to leave some space around items so that the eye can enjoy each piece without feeling overwhelm.
