This could be a piece for you to set your beverages, it could also be a footrest, or it could be a storage piece. More than anything, it is that beautiful, decorative piece for the living room. This single furniture piece has the potential to be all these things plus more.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use the Rule of Three<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Use the Rule of three when shopping for a coffee table. This is a number that you should seriously remember when styling this piece of furniture. This may be a rule but it\u2019s not a strict, unbreakable policy, though.<\/p>\n<p>An example of using this rule is to use books as your base. Your book collections, or any other flat items such as magazines, are the best base for a layered look. Begin with just three books with the same size then stack smaller books on top of this base. Create design magic buy grouping in threes, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Soften the Edges<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Use circular edges if you\u2019re growing tired of the rough edges that rectangular books make.\u00a0 While books could add structure, each piece is stuffy and angular.<\/p>\n<p>Circle can provide the needed elegant curves especially when rectangular corners are numerous. Mix rectangles and circles for a more classic combination. Use circular candleholders, bowls, paperweight or vases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Achieve Various Heights<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One other way to add a positive vibe is to experiment on item height. You can also apply the Rule of Three here. See if you can achieve three varying heights. You may also stack different-sized items. Be sure to put the tallest piece right in the middle. This is the most pleasant symmetry that you can attain.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use Candles, Greens and Flowers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tapered candles and charming flowers are decorative items that every designer must know how to use. These are effective coffee table pieces that could add a pop of color. Just imagine softening the look of metal with a vase of roses, tulips or lilies.<\/p>\n<p>Candlelight spells romance on so many levels.<\/p>\n<p>Greens plants, on the other hand, offer organic lines that are difficult to match. This is because Mother Nature offers a different kind of charm, one that\u2019s unique and awe-inspiring at the same time. Natural elements may also be simple but they could break the monochrome vibe effortlessly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Decorate with Glass<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The top of your coffee table may be made of glass so your designing tasks don\u2019t end there. Since you can see through this material, it means you have to decide on what stuff you would put underneath your coffee table.<\/p>\n<p>Placing a black and white rug is a wonderful contrast to any plain or neutral background.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2483\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" ><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-2483\" src=\"http:\/\/mccreerys.blogs.eprevue.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2016\/10\/BLOG-9.-I.M.-David-Living-Room-Craps-Coffee-Table-6200-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"I.M.

David Living Room Craps Coffee Table 6200<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Upholster It<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Use upholstered ottoman coffee table if you are already fond of using books and other flat items as base. For a more basic approach, use a food serving tray topped with a classic dish or a glass vase. Just drape throw across the surface to cap the look.<\/p>\n<p>Tufted ottoman is elegant, no doubt about this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flaunt Your Collections<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Books, art, collectible boxes from Paris or China could be the only decorative pieces that a coffee table would need. Collections of different-sized trays could also be used.<\/p>\n<p>Minimalism may be in these days but putting your collection out in the open is a great way to define your personality as well as to customize your living room.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Light \u2018Em<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An oversized lantern would be a great accessory to your wicker coffee table. You could also place candelabra there. Have these lit when the guests start to arrive. They will surely be awestruck of your well-thought design.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The coffee table is furniture that could be a lot of things.
