Sometimes we have a feast of ideas for home decoration. Other times, we are starved of creativity. So if you’re hungry for ideas to decorate your sideboard, check out four of our favourite ways to style a buffet in any dining area.
MIRRORS
The humble mirror should never be overlooked. Mirrors aren’t just useful for checking whether you’ve smeared your mascara, they’re also useful for reflecting the light in a space and helping a space feel larger. Highly recommended for small dining areas!
COLOUR
Just like colourful food is generally a good sign of a healthy dish, a colourful dining room is generally a sign of an amiable host who cares about the dining experience of their family and friends. Choose a small palette of accent colours which mean something to you when decorating your sideboard and see how it transforms your space!
SUNLIGHT
Ever notice how antsy you get when you’re stuck in a windowless room or are otherwise deprived of natural light? Imagine how your guests might feel trying to enjoy a meal without an open window!
While it might be hard to “dress up” a sideboard with sunlight, positioning your sideboard near or against a window will help it become a focal point as well as provide the perfect space for your favourite indoor plant to grow.
WALL ART
Paintings, plaques, and other wall art have always been popular in the décor world. Whether it’s a Picasso or not, wall art is one of the best ways to express ourselves while transforming our homes with depth, personality, and meaning.
Use wall art with your sideboard to complement or contrast your dining room scheme, fill space, and provide a conversation-starter for your family and guests.
