Home decor accessories for the finishing touches

Sometimes it's the small details that make a room feel like home. A decorative tray on the coffee table, a bowl on the sideboard or a favourite object on a shelf can bring colour and personality to everyday spaces. Our home decor accessories give you ways to finish a room without changing the furniture you already love. Start with the surfaces you see and use most, then choose accents that suit their size and purpose.

Style a coffee table with room to spare

A coffee table can hold the things you need close by and still look considered. Try grouping a decorative tray, a small object and a book, varying their heights so each detail has space to stand out. A bowl can give smaller items a home. Leave part of the tabletop clear for a drink or a game, and check accessory dimensions before choosing: an arrangement should feel at ease with the table, not take over every inch.

Give consoles and sideboards a focal point

A console in the hallway might need a spot for keys, while a sideboard can make more room for display. Set a tray or decorative object slightly to one side, then balance it with a table lamp or one of our vases. Think about the wall and furniture around the display as well. Repeating a colour or finish already in the room helps the new accents feel at home.

Bring shelves to life with different shapes

Open shelves are a lovely place for the objects you enjoy seeing every day. Mix a rounded bowl with a taller vase or a small sculptural accent, leaving space between groups so the display doesn't feel crowded. You can include a favourite book or photo to make the arrangement personal. Keep heavier or frequently used items where they're easy to reach, and check that each accessory sits comfortably on the shelf.

Refresh the details when you feel like a change

You don't need to restyle the whole room to give it a fresh feel. Move a tray from the coffee table to a console, change what sits inside a bowl or swap a vase between rooms. A few flexible home decor accessories let you try different arrangements using what you already have. Follow each product's care and intended-use information, particularly before placing food, drinks or hot items on a decorative surface.
