We will show you everything you can do to have a pretty coffee table in this article.
Use an odd number of objects on the coffee table
When you plan your coffee table arrangements, think about odd numbers. Whether it is a coffee table arrangement or a bookshelf arrangement, using an odd number of objects in the arrangement gives a pleasing effect and depth to your overall look. Using a modern-style coffee table and placing objects of varying heights and depths over it, you can create an interesting look. Using different objects in a neutral color palette can create an interesting and uncluttered look on your coffee table; just remember to keep the total number of objects in odd numbers.
Using a tray can provide a sophisticated appearance
One would wonder how a tray can add aesthetics to a coffee table’s décor plan. However, modern trays come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and textures; placing a tray is sufficient to create a lovely and aesthetically pleasing look for your coffee table. You can even place a coffee pot or coffee mugs on the tray to enhance the look.
Or you can play with the scale and sizes of objects and combine them to create a gorgeous coffee table setting. You can combine a large vase, a tiny flower pot, and medium-sized books altogether and create a stunning look. Using a variety of sizes and shapes creates a layered design. Or you can even create a unified look by placing different objects of similar color and texture in a tray.
Stack items of different heights together
One of the best coffee table decor ideas you will ever come across is stacking items of different heights together. By utilizing books, magazines, and trays, one can create a lovely look by switching up the height and décor as needed. In one of the recent projects, Argan Design used ceramics, metal, and resin, all while using a very minimalist color palette.
Use Books and Lots of Books
While you are setting up a coffee table, always remember that books are your best friends. Coffee and books go well at all times. Many interior stylists highly recommend using books to decorate your coffee table. Books add depth and height to the table. You can use your favorite books that you love reading or special coffee table picture books to decorate your coffee table. Individual books look great, while even groups of books either placed flatly or stacked above each other look well. When you lay books flat, you can place other objects on top of them and create a designer look. Using books, you can even add a seasonal touch to your décor and keep it lively and fresh. For example, you can use books related to flowers in the summer and books related to snow in the winter.
Add Personal Touches to the Coffee Table
The larger the size of your coffee table, the more decorating options you have. You can use a warm, rustic wooden coffee table to create a perfect neutral slate for an array of different decorative objects and bright colors that go well with your living room’s artwork and throw pillows. Give a floral touch to your coffee table by using an heirloom vase and changing fresh flowers at regular intervals. Incorporate personal items on your coffee table and create a warm and welcoming look. Adding personal touches is the best way to make your coffee table a fantastic space.
Make Use of Stylish Storage Options
As much as we would like to have a coffee table that looks like it came right out of a magazine page, we should even try to make it functional. You can add elements that add storage to your coffee table space and look stylish at the same time.
One of the easiest ways to decorate a stylish coffee table is to use storage objects such as baskets and decorative trunks on top of it. You can even use a stylish tissue paper box made of leather or golden material to give it a classy look. The baskets can be kept on the bottom shelf of a coffee table as well, which can give you ample storage space and allow you to conceal all the clutter.
Continue With Your Living Room’s Color Scheme
Continuing with the color scheme of your coffee table adds an aesthetic touch to your entire space. If you have used bold patterns and saturated colors for your living room, then keep the color palette of your coffee table limited and minimalistic. If you want to add liveliness to your coffee table, then you don’t need to stick to fresh-cut plants. You can use little plants and vines as well to add a fresh touch and elegance to the space. Potted plants don’t have to be replaced multiple times and are very economical. Some modern potted plants come with pots that don’t need watering for weeks or even months. If you travel frequently and enjoy gardening but do not have a garden, you can incorporate fresh potted plants into your coffee table décor.
