AN ENVY-WORTHY COFFEE TABLE

Here is how to achieve that enviable coffee table that is cluttered and stacked and layered – oh my! When you space is looking a little lack-lustre, look to the coffee table as the hub of your living area to freshen up.
Firstly, start with good foundations. Find a coffee table that fits in with the size of the room. If your space is small don’t go for an overbearing style. If your space is teeny-tiny you could opt for a side table instead, placed to the side of a couch or armchair or slightly in front to one side to ease reaching for that cup of tea!
From here, select an assortment of pieces – some practicality, but mainly those you treasure most or have interesting form and a story to tell. The solid ‘coffee table book’ of photography, art and fashion works a treat as something to build around. A stack of these in ascending order of size looks superb with an ornament such as a candle placed on the top. From here adding in some colour and life is a must, think a statement vase with fresh blooms. Go for those that are low in height though so as not to block out your view from the couch. Expand from here with décor that is trending right now. This means anything obscure, industrial or raw; skull heads, pieces in gold or silver for that luxe look, a marble jug or small bowl to hold knick-knacks, a mini terrarium or an Edison globe lamp for a side table to bring light when reading. When grouping more than one of an item use the rule of thumb that odd numbers are better.
The best part about styling your coffee table is you can change it round as much as your want to encompass new interior finds!
