HOW TO STYLE A COFFEE TABLE
Coastal Inspired Books
Start with a selection of coastal-inspired books that feature stunning photography of beach landscapes, coastal homes, or ocean life. The covers should evoke the calming colors of the sea, like shades of blue, aqua, and sandy beige. Arrange these books in a stack or lay them out in a row to create a visually appealing base for your coffee table decor.
Match Cloche
Place a beautiful match cloche on your coffee table. This not only serves a practical purpose but also adds a touch of elegance and functionality. The coastal aesthetic can be found in the details, and a match cloche in coastal colors can be the perfect addition.
Wicker Wavy Tray
Add a layer of texture and warmth with a wicker wavy tray as the centerpiece of your coffee table. The wavy design mimics the gentle ripples of ocean waves, making it a perfect fit for coastal decor. Use the tray to corral smaller items like coasters and candles, or display a collection of shells and beach rocks for an authentic coastal touch.
Embroidered and Raffia Coasters
Elevate your coffee table’s functionality with embroidered and raffia coasters. These coasters not only protect your table’s surface but also introduce subtle coastal accents. Look for coasters with beautiful embroidery, or opt for raffia coasters that exude a beachy, natural vibe. Place them on the wicker tray for an added layer of charm.
Vase for Candles or Flowers
Incorporate a touch of nature and scent by placing a vase on your coffee table. Opt for a glass or ceramic vase that complements the coastal color palette. Fill it with fresh flowers, like white lilies or blue hydrangeas, to bring the essence of the coast indoors. Alternatively, you can use the vase to hold scented candles with ocean-inspired fragrances to set the mood.
Marble Wavy Bowl
Finally, add a luxurious and sophisticated element to your coastal coffee table with a marble wavy bowl. Marble is timeless and pairs beautifully with coastal decor. Fill the bowl with decorative seashells and beach stones, for seaside inspired eye-catching display.
By incorporating these coastal-inspired elements – beautiful books, a match cloche, a wicker wavy tray, embroidered coasters, raffia coasters, a vase for candles or flowers, and a marble wavy bowl – you can transform your coffee table into a serene and elegant coastal haven. This stunning display will not only impress your guests but also create a tranquil atmosphere in your living space, reminding you of the beauty and serenity of the seaside every day no matter what season you’re in. Enjoy!
