Dining Room Hutch Display Ideas

Whether your dining room hutch is a family heirloom or brand-new, it is an important part of your dining room. Knowing showcase this piece of furniture is an important part of decorating the room. One way to showcase your hutch is to use it as a display case.


Art


Display artwork on your dining room hutch. Coordinate the artwork with the theme of your dining room. Use prints of famous artwork, your own creations or the masterpieces your children create. Use similar frames for the artwork you display to unify the display.


Collections


Place collections on your dining room hutch. Ceramic figurines, blown glass or salt-and-pepper shaker collections work well in the dining room. Feel free to display more than one collection on your dining room hutch, carefully spacing the collections away from each other. Thimbles, stamps and vases work well together because they are quite different, which adds visual interest and texture to your dining room hutch.








Photos


Display photos on your dining room hutch. Group similar photos together and in coordinating frames. Using different frame sizes will add depth and dimension to the display.


Crafts


Place crafts on your dining room hutch. Frame samples of your needlework such as cross-stitch samplers and embroidery. Place the floral arrangements and wreaths that you make on your dining room hutch. Display painted plates, cups and saucers on your hutch.
