It has been 13 wild, fabulously creative years since I started this blog all about DIY designing and styling a home that I can feel proud of, and every single year I’ve learned something new. There is no “end point” when it comes to homemaking, I’ve found. You simply evolve with each project, each room makeover, and each and every tabletop that you arrange. You’ll learn along the way what types of formulas work, and every occasion will give you more confidence to tackle a design project in your home that you can feel proud of.

Today, I’m going to teach you two simple ways to style a wooden riser made by my friends at Famorisse. These lovely pedestal style risers are handcrafted by Vietnamese artisans and have a gorgeous rich brown wood grain that suits any aesthetic. I especially love the faceted edge detail because it’s the perfect fit for our mid-century style home. That linear shape feels like a direct call-back to the retro classic aesthetic that we love so much. I can picture it working in our kitchen with salt and pepper shakers, a small ceramic spoon rest, and an olive oil decanter, or in a bathroom with soaps and other luxurious lotions. But today I’m going to focus on ways to style the Famorisse riser in a bedroom and living room setting. Don’t miss my exclusive discount code at the end of the post to save 30% off your order!

Let’s start with the bedroom. First of all, as a lover of solid wood bedroom furniture, I so appreciate the way that this riser complements my existing heirloom collection of wood furniture. The prominent grain in the riser looks so striking against the cherry wood tall dresser that my dad built for me, and I think it’s nicely offset by the ultra feminine glass bottles of perfume that I styled it with. I wanted to bring in a hint of greenery, so I also included a miniature faux succulent, and to finish off the look, I added a small ceramic dish that I bought from a local boutique, which holds my favorite pair of earrings and other everyday jewelry pieces.

Let’s now head into the living room. This time, I used the riser to stow away everyday pieces, like a stack of coasters, plus a deck of playing cards (perfect for impromptu family game night!), and a decorative strand of wooden beads. Keep in mind that your wooden riser doesn’t have to be purely all about functional items. Things like a pretty bead garland and a nearby potted plant help the riser feel like a natural part of your home décor landscape. In other words, consider the “big picture” when styling your own wooden riser.

Bonus Riser Styling Ideas To Try:

1. Bathroom Countertop: Set the stained wood riser on your bathroom counter, and fill it with things like a small juice glass of Q-tips, your favorite room spray, and a bare air plant.

2. Bedroom Nightstand: In the empty space between your table lamp and a potted plant, place the riser and top it with a petite bottle of nighttime lotion, a small lidded ceramic jar that you can stow your earrings in, and a sleek portable phone charger.

3. Kitchen Sink: I love the idea of using the riser in a kitchen for everyday dish soap, hand soap, and a small bud vase filled with dried flower stems (I’m partial to billy balls).

4. Laundry Room: Your laundry room countertop is a great spot for a riser like this! Use it to corral functional items, like dryer balls, a sewing kit for spur-of-the-moment button mending, and assorted essential oil bottles for scenting the dryer balls.

5. Entryway: This one’s a no-brainer, right?! Use your wooden riser to play host to sets of keys, a small glass jar filled with stamps, and your sunglasses, too.
