Accessorizing Your Sideboard

March 4, 2016

Sideboards reached new heights of sleekness and style in the midcentury period, and evolved into an indispensable piece that offers heaps of living-space storage. Although historically, they were created for a home's dining room, the options are endless as to which space you use them in. If you're seeking a beautiful piece of Furniture as well as storage, then a sideboard is a great choice.

Once your new Sideboard is placed in your home, it's time to take a few things into account when you're ready to accessorize it. Simplicity is key for the top of your furniture as clutter kills! Keep your accessories to a minimum as too much variety creates chaos and your special pieces aren't showcased.

If your sideboard is used in the dining room, it's possible that your dining room table may hide it. Take this into account and make sure that you place items of height on top such as tall vases, buffet lamps or arrangements.

Keep in mind balance when setting up the objects you display. By choosing Home Accessories that have similar visual weight or size and placing them opposite each other will provide you with a balanced display.

A variety of knick-knacks adds visual interest. You may wish to try using groupings of like objects that each have unique characteristics. Choosing items that have a common thread will create interest without chaos!
