Styling a coffee table can sometimes feel intimidating, but as long as you keep a few tips in mind, it is much easier than you think! Keep reading to learn more.

Our Tips

  1. For structure, start by dividing your table into equal quadrants and create an arrangement within each space.
  2. Arrange objects in varying shape. Think stacks of coffee table books (rectangle), trays (square or oval) and bowls (round).
  3. Stack coffee books, typically in groups of 2-4. You can stick to a color scheme or main theme.
  4. Create interest by playing with scale. This can be achieved with a vase and some tall branches or stems. Oversized or footed bowls add varying height as well.
  5. Add those finishing touches with layers. Think beads, candles, matchboxes, small bowls, and coasters.
  6. Edit, edit and edit! Keep re-arranging or scaling back your objects until it feels right for your lifestyle, home and space.
