Define the purpose of the space

Before you begin, consider the purpose of the dresser and the room in which it is located. Will it be a functional piece of furniture in the bedroom or a focal point in the living room? This approach will help you choose the right decorative elements.

Select a color palette

Opt for tones that complement the natural finish of the wood. For example, warm, neutral tones, such as beige or terracotta, enhance the texture of wood dressers. If you prefer something more modern, try metallic accents such as gold or matte black.

 

Essential decorative elements for your chest of drawers

Mirrors and paintings

A large mirror placed above the dresser adds depth and brightness to the space. Alternatively, a set of small pictures with wooden frames creates a cozy atmosphere.

Decorative lamps

Table lamps are not only functional, but also add a sophisticated touch. Choose designs that complement the style of your dresser.

Plants and flowers

Plants in small pots or fresh bouquets in vases bring freshness and vitality. In addition, green plants contrast perfectly with the warm finish of the wood.

Organizer boxes and trays

Use wooden or fabric boxes to keep small items organized. Decorative trays are perfect for perfumes, jewelry or candles.
