Remember the style and
feel you want and that will
help in choosing items. For
this look we went with a
relaxed Bohemian vibe.
When styling the top
of your console, I
suggest thinking in
threes and focusing
on creating a mix of
heights and tex-
tures. In this case,
we chose items like
a table lamp and a
basket that are
decorative and
functional. Above the
console, I prefer to
hang either a mirror
or a piece of art. The
artwork used here is
perfect in its size and
style and adds to the
casual, textured feel
of this vignette.
When choosing a
console, it’s great to
have something with
texture for visual
interest as well as
built-in storage for
added functionality
which is why I love
this one from Style in
Form.

Often, the sides of a console get forgotten. This is
one of my favorite “designer tricks.” You can add
plants, a chair or a fun pouf to fill the space and
add texture.
