At Pure Salt, we believe every piece in your home should marry beauty with purpose—and the cabinet is no exception. Whether it’s the Gable Four-Door, the Vallon Console, or a handcrafted vintage find, a cabinet offers so much more than just storage. It’s a styling opportunity, a design moment waiting to be lived in and loved.

Here’s our expert guide to making the most of your cabinet with refined, layered styling that brings personality and polish to your space.


Cabinet Styling Guide

01 // Start with a Statement

Featured Cabinet: Gable Four Door

Whether it’s a work of art or a textural mirror, anchor your cabinet with a statement piece that creates vertical height and adds visual weight. For console tables under windows, consider sculptural objects or a layered grouping of smaller art prints instead. Think of this as the backdrop that draws the eye in.

Our Picks:


02 // Add Layered Objects

Cabinet styling is all about balance. Mix and match heights, materials, and forms—ceramic vases, stacked books, or vintage finds. Group items in odd numbers for an effortless, styled feel, and leave space for the eye to rest.

Designer Tip: Start with your largest object first and build out.


03 // Incorporate Greenery

Bring life to your cabinet styling with greenery. Whether it’s a tall olive branch in a handmade vessel or a small potted plant, nature always adds warmth and softness to more structured styling.


04 // Don’t Forget Function

Styling your cabinet isn’t just about the pretty moments—it’s also about how you live. Use the interior storage space to keep things tidy and out of sight, while the top offers a curated moment of design expression.


05 // Make It Yours

Our homes are a reflection of who we are. Let your cabinet tell your story with pieces that matter to you—a framed photo, a well-worn book, a candle that smells like home. Styling should always feel personal, never forced.
