How to Style a Super Chic Coffee Table

One of the easiest ways to switch up your living room décor at no cost is to re-style your coffee table. My coffee table is one of my favorite finds from eBay and I re-style the tabletop every couple of weeks because I love to switch up the look. Even the smallest change such as swapping out the books on display, somehow makes the room feel fresh and new again. If you’re looking to create a stylish coffee tablescape at home that’s just as picture perfect as the ones in your favorite glossy magazines, below are the must-haves you’ll need…

5 MUST-HAVES FOR A perfectly styled COFFEE TABLE

Incorporate a Natural Element
A natural element like a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers, a plant or seasonal cut branches, will add life to your coffee table and will help bring color and vibrancy into the room.

Utilize Trays to Arrange Objects
Adding a decorative tray to your coffee tablescape creates an artful solution for arranging interesting and personal objects together on your table.

Decorate with Books
Not only do books add interest to your coffee table, they also help keep guests entertained when you have visitors. Find some coffee table books lying around your home and arrange them in stacks with your larger books at the bottom and the smaller ones on top.

Include a Chic Sculptural Object for Interest
Bring in an object or two with a unique shape to add a sculptural feel to your coffee table. Whether it’s an actual sculpture, an interesting bowl or even a scented candle in an unusual vessel, incorporating a sculptural object will add subtle drama and style to your coffee table.

Make a Statement with a Decorative Box
I love incorporating decorative boxes into my tablescape because in addition to making a stylish statement, they also are a great tool for corralling clutter that you don’t want to hide away like remote controls or coasters.
