What to put on a sideboard
Put one sculptural piece on your sideboard, or a pair in two heights. Choose a colour that is already in your room, such as the blue in a picture.
What does that look like?
Both photos show the same sideboard. In the first photo, it holds a row of small things. In the second photo, it holds a pair of Royal Blue vases.
The blue vases match the blue in the artwork above them. Now the wall and the sideboard look like they belong together.
Should you choose one piece or a pair?
One piece is enough on a short sideboard. A pair often looks better on a long one. Two pieces of different heights give the spot a clear shape.
If a 24 cm piece looks a little lonely, add an 18 cm piece beside it.
Your room doesn't need more. It needs the right piece, or the right pair.
Which WINKOO piece suits a sideboard?
The pair in the photo is Noma in Royal Blue. Noma is our most chosen shape. Royal Blue is one of our two most chosen colours.
A 24 cm Noma costs A$169, and a 34 cm Noma costs A$269. You can find the 18 cm size in the shop.
If your room has green in it, try Noma in Jade Green. Jade Green is our most chosen colour.
How do you choose the colour?
- Look at the wall above your sideboard and the sofa near it.
- Find a colour you like in a picture, a cushion or a throw.
- Choose your piece in that same colour.
You can try colours in our interactive studio.
Which size should you choose?
- 24 cm is the size most people choose.
- 34 cm suits a long sideboard, and it is the tallest size we make.
- 18 cm works best as the smaller piece in a pair.
A good pair is 24 cm with 18 cm, or 34 cm with 24 cm.
Do you need to clear everything else away?
No, you can keep your lamp and the things you use every day. Just leave some clear space around your piece or pair.
Every vase is watertight, so you can add flowers when you like. Most weeks it will look finished without them. You can read how to style a vase without flowers.
