Do you have a painting, art, or window treatments in the room that you could pull a color from for the sideboard? Or, colors in an adjoining room that you could pull in?
For example, our living room is painted a medium green blue color. In the adjoining dining room, we have a pine hutch, medium oak table and chairs, and a sideboard painted a similar blue to the living room color. We have a transitional style. The window treatments also have some of the blue in them. It flows together very well. |
What do you mean? What else would a sideboard be made out of? I don't want glass doors because I need to store all kinds of crap in there. |
NP here. Just guessing, but I bet the last poster meant that the piece is too heavy-looking. It reads as a whole lot of wood. I think you'd be happier with something funkier or sleeker or antique. Such as a sleek, white sideboard with legs or an old dresser that you paint a fun color or something. |
Maybe something like this? https://www.allmodern.com/Tema-Edge-Sideboard-TMA1688.html?piid%5B0%5D=11931034&piid=11931034 |
I think the second thumbnail there with the antique white bottom and stained top would be nice & sleek and not too country. Agree if the whole thing is stained wood it's too country. |
NP here. This sideboard is really nice and much more contemporary and attractive. Very well done by the poster who picked it out. If the top closely matches the stain of the table (hard for us to judge), it's perfect to tie it all together for a sleek and transitional look. The other sideboard was too heavy and dowdy looking. |
Ah, ok. Thanks. |

This is OP. As a note, we already have gold accents in that room (chandelier has gold metal in it and our bar cart is glass and gold metal). I'd love any feedback on the following pieces if anyone feels like giving me any! Thanks in advance!

| I like 2, 1 and 3 (in that order). |
The ethan allen, greta fluted, and second west elm are all bad choices. The ethan allen is too heavy looking and the other two are just plain ugly. The restoration hardware and first west elm are ok. Ballard designs generally make cheap furniture, so I'd stay away from them anyway. The link a PP posted to a sideboard is nice, but if you have to go with one of these, pick the RH or WE, although it likely won't match as well because the white/wood is reversed from the way it would be best. (Wood on top, white base) |
