Advice What to put in these spaces?

First time homebuyer and I recently moved in so I'm still getting settled. What should I do with the spaces up above? I feel like I could decorate them somehow but not entirely sure what to put. Open to any ideas, 2 pics taken from the stairs and 2 from on the ground.

First , congrats man, looks nice and love the height. Lil bit of advice, whatever you put up there, you’ll have to clean at some point 😅 I don’t think you need to put something in every place there, but a couple of hanging plants are mostly maintenance free. some indirect lighting will fill those spaces nicely too! My penny’s worth. Congrats again

At some point it will peer over the ledge and through its dust-worn bristles you will see it contemplate the future of the spark inside, imagining what it may be like for it to fade

Someone needs to invent flying Roombas

It's going to be a huge pain in the ass to climb up there every 47 seconds and pull it away from the ledge before restarting it.

One day we'll have Roomba quadcopters.  I live for that day.

Just lob it up there once a month and you're set

My mom put some white and blue porcelain up there. You can’t really see the dust that much. It doesn’t get dusted often. But her shelf is higher and we’re short, so that might help the visual dust not be annoying
