Thoughts on decorating the top of an armoire - hi..Home Design,The house is a sanctuary for all that occupies. Every spot within the house is required to service each family member. A father needs a comfortable workplace, a mother also needs an efficient kitchen and a pleasant children's room.With these considerations we give an idea of Thoughts on decorating the top of an armoireThe proper selection of the house is the key to determining how well the inhabitants reside in their palaces. No matter how vast it is important to be at home
So you have an armoire and you are eying that space between the top of it and the ceiling. Do you or don't you put anything on top of it? You might want to consider the following:
How much space do you have to work with?
If you have less than 24 inches I suggest forgetting about adding something above it. Here's why:
This is a lovely armoire, but the flowers are squished in, and they would be so much
BUT sometimes you can make it work. There's always an exception to every rule.
Even though these baskets touch the ceiling in places, their colour, scale and random/exciting arrangement make them appear as if they are an extension of the armoire. The armoire is also at the end of a hall and will always be viewed from a distance allowing you to see what's on top of it.
Do you want your eye to go to the top of the armoire?
If your armoire is a centre of interest in your space you may want to add other elements to enhance that position and make it even more commanding. You might also want to add something if you have other tall elements in the space or you want to create some height variations among the various verticals in the space.
If you have enough space and you want to draw attention to the armoire here are some tips to consider:
If the armoire has glass doors, consider using the same type of objects stored within it on the top.
This arrangement of bottles and bedding is a natural addition to what is already stored inside the armoire. The light colours make the whole unit look very cohesive.
In this child's room the top of the armoire seems to be the perfect place to store these large toys. Because they are the same colour as the room and the armoire, they don't seem too big. That leads me to the next tip:
If you don't want to draw too much attention to the objects, but you want to fill in the space consider using objects that are the same or similar colour of the armoire or the wall or use clear glass.
If you are going to add a piece of art that high make sure it is a bold image that it can be read from a distance and lean it against the wall , if you are considering using a photograph the same guidelines apply.
Think about groupings of the same object in different sizes. e.g., vases, glass bottles, boxes, baskets, birdcages, wire sculptures, spheres, ginger jars, etc.

This is a lovely armoire, but the flowers are squished in, and they would be so much
prettier in a different spot. The arrangement looks awkward. The scale of the flowers and pan are perfect if only the armoire were a little shorter. If you choose to put something smaller in scale on top it would be difficult to see and you would have to stand back quite a bit to see it.
