Chic Ways To Spruce Up Your Dining Table, Bedroom & Bathroom Displays

No, we’re not talking flat lays (though the stuff here is photogenic enough). Here’s what you need – and need to know – to add character to that side table.

No, we’re not talking flat lays (though the stuff here from Robinsons department stores is photogenic enough). Here’s what you need – and need to know – to add character to that side table.

Chic Ways To Spruce Up Your Dining Table, Bedroom & Bathroom Displays
#1: For The Dining Table
image

Introduce pops of colour into your stash of all white crockery. Just keep the shades in the warm and soft territory. Red and orange are said to improve your appetite, so say the colour experts.

From left: Jamie Oliver bruschetta serving board, $39. J Rapee Shadow Floral napkin in mustard, $7. Wiltshire silicone and bamboo spatula, $7.90. Rice melamine plates, $14.80 each. Jamie Oliver terracotta casserole dish, $23.90. Rice melamine cups, $9-$11.50 each. Bodum 0.35-litre Caffettiera coffee maker, $22.80. Nordstjerne wooden boxes, $81-$186. Luzerne new bone marble tableware, $14.50-$44.50. All other furnishings, stylist’s own

#2: For The Bedside Table

The ultimate girlie room could do with some industrial touches too. A utilitarian lamp and matte metallic speakers are all you need to add some edge, and ground this little nook in your bedroom.

From left: John Lewis Barrett table lamp, $280. Addison Ross shagreen sea green frame, $113. Prada opal powder pink acetate squared sun-style sunglasses, $460. Lenco Playlink 4 metal speakers, $488. Laduree rose geranium room spray, $109. Bloomingville marble tea light candle holder and storage, $129. Asiatides enamel and metal round table, $499.
All other furnishings, stylist’s own

#3: For The Bathroom Counter

Give your vanity counter a luxe touch – the way spas or hotel bathrooms do it – by adding marble or porcelain soap dishes under your hand soap bottles. Then, throw a calming candle into the mix. Its container doubles as a nifty vase
for flowers when the candle is used up.   

From left: Baylis & Harding French Lavender and Jasmine & Apple Blossom Hand Wash, $6.90 each. House Doctor marble soap dish, $65. John Lewis ceramic soap dish, $39, and whale candle, $19. Simplehuman sensor mirror, $359. Charles Millen cotton face towels, $7.90 each. Laduree Mimosa scented candle, $95. All other furnishings, stylist’s own

#4: For The Coffee Table
image

A Victorian-style tea set can sit pretty well in a contemporary home. The trick is to keep the frou-frou to a minimum. Case in point: the minimalist-meets-classical design of Baci Milano, which comes in soothing shades of pastel.

From left: Asiatides enamel nested table, $1,518 for a set of three. Shinola paper notebooks, $8-$15 for a pack of two. Baci Milano ice cream bowl with spoon, $28, porcelain and silicone coffee cup and saucer, $72 for a set of two, and Moka pot, $72. Strange & Deranged wooden mushroom decor, $39. Tom Dixon scented candle, $280 for a set of four. All other furnishings, stylist’s own

An adapted version of this appeared in Robs Report in Female‘s May 2016 issue.
