Rooms need furniture for sitting or sleeping, dining or relaxing, and accent furnishings like chests to round out the décor and make a room look complete. Accent chests add a touch to your room that can't be accomplished with any other type of furnishing. They can provide extra storage, or be used simply for decoration, in guest rooms or other areas of the house. Some chests are made from oak, which is a lovely wood with many facets to show off. You can impress your guests with special accent pieces.

The most attractive accent chests may include areas that are hand painted or hand stained. This adds to the style of each item. If your chosen chest has drawers, they may have hardware that is finished to look like antique hardware.

A room that is arranged neatly speaks a lot about you, and accent chest furniture will tell guests about your sense of style. You probably have many small items which are only occasionally used, but are difficult to store. If they are left lying around, the home will not be as attractive. Chests can solve that problem by giving you a beautifully crafted piece of furniture that can also handle your storage needs.

You may have a lot of space or just a little in your home, and even if you have a chest of drawers, that may not provide you with enough storage options for smaller items. The best woods are used in chests, so that they will be show pieces in your home. If you take advantage of the storage possibilities, you can find things more easily, too.

Select your accent chests carefully, by the type of wood and the color that will highlight the rooms in your home. They may match with the other furniture in the rooms where you place them, so that the overall look is appealing for guests and family alike. Determine if you want a chest with drawers, which will give you more storage options. You can use the top of your chest for a vase of flowers, a lamp or other objects that bring you pleasure.

The accent chests made for halls or foyers may be smaller than those used inside a room, if you have a smaller area in which to place them.
