What to Place on Top?
Antique bottles, potpourris, scented waters, perfumes – there are hundreds of different ways in which to decorate dressing tables. In Victorian times the top was usually covered in muslin or lace and ladies put their silver combs and brush set on them.

Many women placed vintage perfume bottles and a silver comb and brush set like the Victorians. Kerosene lamps and candle-holders add a very distinctive Victorian touch to the dressing table and bedroom.
Skirting your vanity table also adds an elegant Victorian look, and allows you to match your vanity to the tone of your bedroom. A matching glass top provides protection for the fabric and the option to place photos of dear ones underneath..
Jewelry & Makeup Boxes
Jewelry boxes look very attractive on top of dressing tables and there are many different kinds. Antique, wooden, Oriental, or modern boxes are just some ideas.
 Makeup boxes are also very useful. Many vintage boxes can be used for almost anything. Some women like to place a few dolls or figurines on their dressing tables. An attractive vintage doll or figurine looks lovely on an antique vanity.
