We are still knee deep in boxes here at the new home but that hasn’t stopped me from doing a little shopping. Before we even moved I had purchased a large shelving unit to go in the dining/entrance area of my home. I purchased it online at Kohls.com. I’m a little leery sometimes about buying items online that I haven’t seen in person first. I knew I wanted a good quality shelf that was going to last.

This piece of furniture was not light at all, in fact the shipping document said it weighs 125 pounds. We finally got a free weekend, I use the word free loosely, to get a little bit of unpacking and cleaning up. My husband put my shelving unit together with just a little help from me.
Looks nice right? Of course now it only needs a few decorations. I received a gift card from Kohl’s to find just the right items for my new home decorating needs. I was able to purchase some really nice items. I’ve decided that my dining area is going to have blue/brown/gold accents so I was looking for items that would work well with those colors. This is one of my favorite items I purchased.
I also wanted to pick up some picture frames to add a personal touch. I still need to add some photos but the frames were a great price. When we purchased them it was buy one get one for $1.
I’m still not finished with my shelving unit as I have to find some items that are still in boxes. However I think overall it looks great and will be a nice focal point for the room.
I also purchased a fun beach like set of candles that I thought would be great for the shelf but ending up being too long. So instead we have placed it on our cocktail table. Turns out it didn’t come with the candles so I will have to purchase some.
It took my daughter and I several trips to Kohl’s to finally decide on our purchases. There were so many great deals and so many choices that we wanted to make sure we chose the right one. I love that you can find great clothes and item’s for your home, kitchen, or bath in one place!
Any ideas for my new shelving unit?

love the accessories like the seahorse, do you have some photo albums you want to add to your shelve perhaps.
Penelope Guzman says
You are so right that Kohls has many awesome choices for your home. I have to second the opinion of the seahorse being really nice. I think you should create some family photo collages with nice homemade frames for your shelves. You could also have your kids create something to be displayed there.

i love all the cool and modern things they have at kohl’s. i still can’t believe that it is sold at kohl’s.

I love that kind of ‘accent’ furniture for a house. You’ve reminded me that I have a Kohl’s rewards certificate to use up this week, I think I will use it on something for my home as well…or my daughter’s dorm room 😉

I was thinking family photos too.

Such nice finds, especially the shelving unit. I couldn’t have anything like that now with an almost 2 year old. ~lol~

Jo-Ann Brightman says
YOur bookcase looks great. You could add more family photos. or perhaps something in a coastal theme to complement the seahorse
Birdiebee says
I love the shelf. There are so many possibilities of what you could put in it and on it. Kohl’s is one of my favorite stores to shop.
Angela says
I really love shopping at Kohls for clothes. I’ll have to check them out for furniture too. I love this piece you got. Candles is my big thing. Looks like you got that covered.
Sarah L says
Books! And candles and pictures. Kohls has some nice frames.
Kathleen says
Love that shelf, we have something similar in the boys rooms and they work so well for storage.
Sarah L says
I won a $100 GC to Kohls and I’m looking forward to getting lots of great stuff.
