7 Center Table Decorative Ideas

Tuesday, December 12th, 2017

The Cachet Trunk Cocktail is beautifully emphasized with the pop of green offered by these few pieces of apples.

The center table, whether located in the grand foyer or just tucked in a cozy corner, can double as a reading nook and a place to set your most beautiful decorative elements. If you are thinking of ways to deviate from the classic look that most houses set up, then here are some ideas that will surely captivate your imagination –

Vase Cluster

This is an easy enough decorative theme for your center table. It is quick to set up plus it doesn’t look like every center table centerpiece on the planet.

Be unique as you create an informal balance of 3-5 vases. The more varied the heights, the better. The vases also don’t need to be similar. You can experiment with the fusion of different materials, for example, glass with metal or blue flowers with cut branches.

Here’s a styling tip: always place the tallest vase at the center of your decorative theme and let the smaller ones cluster around it.

Mound of Books

If books are a major part of your life, then it would be best to show them off to everyone. But don’t fill just your shelves with these books. Instead, diversify by making a lovely stack on your center table. Place your prized possessions for everyone to see as they enter your living room.

If you’re particular about your books and you don’t want uncaring hands to touch them, then have these valuable pieces encased in a shelf with a sliding glass cover and lock. Just make sure to display the ones that you are willing to share with other people.

Old books look great when placed right next to a vintage-looking candelabrum.

Find out also if you would like to decorate according to book color. Classify according to the color of the spine, their sizes or according to topic. The variations are almost limitless.

Bust and Sculptures

Find a sculpture or any object that has about half the diameter of your beautiful center table. You can then arrange a small pile of coffee-table-size books beside the artwork.

An Empty Vase

Who says that the rule is to fill a vase with flowers, twigs or whatnot each and every time? There is no need to fuss over cutting some fresh blooms just to decorate your center table. Just find a lovely vase – one that catches attention even without trying – and it becomes the sole decorative element for your center table.

If you don’t want that vase to look too alone, then find some more coffee table books and have them surround this lovely piece.

Asymmetry Is Key

If you have a round center table and you are planning to tuck it into a corner, then be sure to decorate it with a vase, an interesting sculpture, and some beautiful books. This is an ensemble of decorative elements that could work together to beautify an otherwise bland-looking corner in your home.

Asymmetry is also an arrangement that is less formal. A large vase placed off-center and surrounded with books is one of the best yet simplest asymmetrical arrangement that you can concoct for your center table.

A Huge Planter

Pick a planter that fills up 75% of the center table. Be sure to measure your center table before buying the planter. Be sure to plant it with the most gorgeous plants like bonsai and flowery plants like orchids and roses.

Floor-length Table Cover and More Books

Nope, we still haven’t stopped using those books. You can now create a more elegant look for your center table as you dress it up with a floor-length tablecloth. You can then place some more books together with a vase or sculpture as the focal piece.

You can even use the space underneath as a space for those winter mittens and scarves.
