Styling a coffee table

​Creating the perfectly styled coffee table is actually quite simple. No matter what your style, aesthetic, or vibe is these tips are sure to help you flaunt it in the best way possible!

Anchor
​I am a major fan of designing with trays. Having a bunch of trinkets can seem messy and cluttered. Setting those items on tray anchors the objects to that place. Trays help to make the pieces on your coffee table feel purposeful.

Create Varying Heights
Layering and using different height objects creates interest. You can layer books and place objects on top of coasters. Do not use all objects that are the same height (unless you plan on layering them). Varying height and width pieces are key. Make sure to not use too tall of objects as it may interfere with your view of the TV.

Add Intriguing Items
This is where your own personal style comes into play! Be sure to add objects that are personal to you and show off those things that you love. GET CREATIVE!

Go Green
Adding a plant to your decor instantly brings life to your coffee table. Your choices here are pretty limitless. Houseplants are a great for adding color and something organic. I am newer to the plant mom club so I prefer succulents as they are easy to care for.

Bring Some Ambiance to the Table
Last but not least, one easy trick to creating the perfect coffee table is to add a candle. This adds ambiance when you are relaxing on the couch or entertaining guests. It can also serve as a decorative object if the candle comes in a unique container.
