Having trouble figuring out what to display on top of your entertainment center? Here are some ideas to get you started. Try grouping similar objects in odd numbers, as this looks more visually appealing. Choose objects with different heights and different shapes to play off each other. Hang baskets on top of books and DVDs to store the items in between them. Use bookshelves to hold decorative objects, such as figurines or other interesting objects.
Another great way to decorate the top of your entertainment center is to place special ornaments or decorations on it. Place recessed lights to highlight a nativity scene or a glass pumpkin collection, or place sisal Easter bunnies on top. During the fall season, place an arrangement of autumn leaves, as this will act as a backdrop for a decorative squirrel figurine or antique Gurley Thanksgiving candles. If you have an eclectic taste, play up the geometric or square shapes that are common to your room.
You can also place a vase of flowers above the entertainment center to serve as a focal point. Vases and flowers are ideal for a centerpiece. Candles in varying heights are also a wonderful addition. In addition to flowers and candles, you can display decorative items and art on the top of your entertainment center. While these decorating ideas will work on any piece of furniture, be sure to consider the room’s theme when deciding on the top of the entertainment center.
