Tables
There are many different types of tables to choose from for your home, so it can be confusing to know which one will best suit your needs. The great thing about home furniture is that you don’t have to buy everything at once; instead, you can slowly accumulate things over time until you have a fully furnished living space. If you want to complete the look of your home with the perfect furniture set, consider the following tips and information on what type of table you need in your home.
1. Coffee Table
The coffee table is one of those unsung heroes that plays an important role in making your room feel cozy and comfortable. Even though you probably won’t be eating anything off it, coffee tables act as a resting place for snacks, beverages, and other items you might need in front of you (such as books or remote controls). While most coffee tables are pretty uniform in size, there’s still quite a variety out there—from shorter ones that can fit on small countertops to larger models with drawers and even glass tops. If you’re looking to get a new one, here’s what to look for
2. Dining Table
A dining table is a must-have in any well-furnished, functional space. Many homeowners opt to buy a square or round table that easily accommodates seating for 4, 6, 8 or even 10 people. While round or square dining tables are a traditional centerpiece to any great room layout and offer plenty of options when it comes to style and size, other designs may be better suited for smaller homes. Round kitchen islands can serve as functional eating spaces that can double as stylish conversation pieces and modern takes on rectangular dining table sets offer a unique alternative that works well in both formal and casual settings. This guide will give you an overview of some common alternatives so you can pick one that best fits your lifestyle.
3. Vanity Table
A vanity table is a full-length mirror attached to a dresser or a large cabinet. It’s most commonly found in bathrooms, where it makes applying makeup, brushing teeth and fixing hair an easier task. However, vanity tables can be placed anywhere in your home. You could have one in your bedroom or living room if you wanted to give yourself some added convenience while getting ready. If you get tired of having it in one room, move it! Vanity tables are fairly portable, so they’re very easy to move around as needed.
4. Nested Table
Nested or corner dining tables give you more table space. Perfect for small spaces, these pieces usually come in sets with two leaves that open up to expand it from a two-person table to one big enough to fit eight people. Not only do they provide versatility, but because they come in sets, you can mix and match chairs and sideboards with them. You’ll be able to create combinations based on price and style preferences.
5. End Table
Whether you’re looking to accent a room or create a set, end tables are versatile enough to add a nice touch to any living space. End tables can come in nearly endless styles and materials, from pine and plywood to sleek metal designs. The best part about these smaller pieces is that they won’t break your budget. Consider adding end tables with drawers, which can help you save even more space by clearing up clutter. Additionally, large lamps or statement plants look especially chic on top of them.
6. Console Table
They’re often smaller than larger tables and can be placed on either side of a sofa or chair, depending on space and available furniture. If you’re looking to de-clutter, accent tables are a great option as they don’t take up much room but will still add beauty and style to any living space. They’re also a good way to make a space feel less empty if you’re just starting out with decorating. Accent tables work well alone but can also complement other items in an eclectic space (think: mixing table styles). A common mistake people make when decorating with accent tables is using them for everything. For example, use an end table next to your bed for magazines or phones—not remote controls and snacks!
7. Accent Table
An accent table is just what it sounds like: a small table that adds some visual flair to a room. Because they’re small, accent tables don’t take up much space, but that doesn’t mean they can’t make a big visual impact. In fact, in living rooms and entryways, these pieces have an almost spotlight-like quality: They draw focus because of their size while adding just enough extra style to really stand out. Accent tables can also be used to add storage or function to other parts of your home: Add one near a reading nook or put one between two chairs in a dining room. Their adaptability makes them an extremely versatile piece and allows you to use them for many purposes throughout your home!
8. Bedside Table
These come in many shapes and sizes, but they all have one thing in common: They’re low to ground, which makes them great options for small spaces. The best part about a bar table is that you can use it as extra seating or a place to set down drinks and munchies when people come over. Bar tables don’t take up too much space, either, so you can really get creative with their placement around a room or even in a bedroom if there’s not enough floor space. For example, use two bar stools as end tables in front of an armchair. You can also use them as side tables next to your bed or even a bathroom vanity table! There really aren’t any limits on how you can repurpose these awesome pieces.
9. Bar Table
These bars make great multipurpose pieces, since they can double as seating and a place to display decor items. Some models even come with built-in cup holders! If you live in a small space or don’t want to invest in larger furniture pieces, bar stools and a countertop table might be just what you need. You can move them into whichever room is most convenient for entertaining or eating and then quickly put them away if it’s time to get things done.
10. Cocktail Table
Do you want something that can double as a side table or a cocktail table? Then you should opt for a standard cocktail table. We offer them in both glass and wood, so they’re easy to blend with any design scheme. A glass cocktail table is perfect if you have kids or just want an easy-to-clean surface , but real wood is more durable and attractive. Many of our glass coffee tables come with matching end tables, so don’t forget to pick up those as well
