Tips to turn people’s attention away from your empty trophy cabinet

You could build a swanky stadium like Spurs to hide the fact you have an empty trophy cabinet. Or, you could opt for one of the much more affordable options available to you.

We’ve got you covered with these award-winning ideas.

1. Create a feature wall

A feature wall will cleverly draw the eye away from your barren display cabinet and create a talking point during those stadium tours. It’s a win-win!

Bold wallpaper, a lick of paint in your team’s colours, a mural, or even a full-scale fish tank – do whatever it takes to mask the fact that the cabinet is still. Sitting. Empty.

2. Hang an eye-catching ceiling light

Failing to impress your supporters with the silverware, why not spur them on and blind them with the lights instead?

A massive chandelier, dazzling spotlights, or dancing LED smart lights, at least you’ll be lighting up your fans’ lives in one way.

3. Act like it’s the Sistine Chapel

We may not have Michelangelo himself, but our painter and decorators could do a stellar job transforming your ceiling to enlighten your supporters.
