A coffee table is considered the mainstay of your living room, and with styling, it can give beauty to an entire space. Well-decorated coffee table melds functionality with style-be it minimalist, modern, or eclectic. Here are some expert tips by Jarbasky Home Decor on how to make a beautifully styled coffee table that speaks of you.
Start with a Statement Piece
Start out by selecting a statement piece that will anchor your coffee table’s design. This can be anything from a beautiful tray, an oversized vase, or even a sculptural art piece. At Jarbasky Home Decor, we recommend you select one that demands attention and yet burdens complementing the theme of your décor. Our Ceramic Art Deco Vase is just right to add elegance and height to your table setup.
Balance with Books
Books are timeless accessories when it comes to coffee table styling. Choose a few beautiful hardcover books in some sort of unifying theme to your aesthetic and stack them horizontally for a clean look. Place a small decorative object, such as a candle or plant, on top. The trick is to not overdo it-just a couple books on the table will do. Try pairing books with our Modern Brass Candle Holder above for a sophisticated feel.
Add Greenery
Immediately add some warmness to your coffee table by adding a touch of nature. Place a small potted plant, a series of succulents, or even just a simple floral arrangement to freshen up the space and bring in some color. Select greenery that best fits your lighting situation along with your personal style. Our Minimalist Geometric Planter is ideal for planting, adding an artistic flair to it.
Incorporate Personal Items
Give your coffee table an edge. The personal touches-a figurine picked up during travel, a family heirloom, or an ornament with sentimental value-make character and warmth. Place them thoughtfully to tell something about you and your family. As a matter of fact, the personal touch lends a lived-in comfortable vibe that says it all to your guests.
Create Layers
Layering adds depth and dimension to your coffee table. You can do this by combining objects in varying heights and textures. Consider pairing a tall vase with one low-profile tray or mixing smooth ceramic items with rougher wooden or woven elements. By working in layers, you’ll avoid the table looking flat or one-dimensional.
That’s where Jarbasky Home Decor’s Vintage Wooden Trays work their magic: to ground your design and offer the ultimate ease of use in having remotes or whatever other functional items you need at your fingertips.
Light It Up
No coffee table is complete without one or two candles. Candles offer not only warm light but also a sense of calmness to the atmosphere in your living room. Whether sleek and modern or vintage holders, they should be selected to match your current theme. For an added aromatic experience that delights the senses, try our Scented Pillar Candles.
Change with the Seasons
Refresh the décor on your coffee table with each season so that you will always feel like it’s up to date. Consider lighter colors and florals during spring, while bringing in earth tones and natural textures during the fall season. Jarbasky Home Decor has in-store seasonal décor pieces perfect for giving your coffee table a quick makeover throughout the year.
It’s not just a table for placing your coffee or drinks on; it’s supposed to show off your style and creativity. Using these tips brought to you by Jarbasky Home Decor, you can make that part of the living area visually stunning, aesthetically pleasing, and functional.
