The top shelf contains a pitcher, a measuring cup, bowls, a couple of mugs and a few other kitchen items. The second shelf includes a pile of dinner plates with a square platter behind, a small stack of saucers with a plastic container on top and two bowls. The second shelf is in direct sunlight and therefore is much brighter then the above shelf.
