TS4 uses 3 different "slot" sizes on all of their deco items. So even tho an item may look like it's small enough (or can be shrunk down to be small enough) to fit on a shelf, if that item is tagged as a "Medium" or "Large" slot, it simply will not snap to a slot. The way it was done in previous games was much better because it was as simple as an item will either snap to a slot or it won't, there were no slot sizes.
Shelves only have "small" slots.. Here's a picture of what the slots look like on a shelf
You'll notice on the right it tells you what size of deco slots will fit on that shelf, which is only things catergorized as a small deco item in the settings.

Yeah shelving is one of the biggest hurdles of the game and one of the buggiest too for routing. It pains me as a builder to use a lot of the furniture in the game just because it messes up routing so much even when it is supposed to be functional. Sims 4 is known for making objects too large for the lots provided in the game.
