Add a splash of color

Make your coffee table look more interesting by displaying some fresh flowers. No matter what kind of flowers you like, it can make all the difference in your living area. But if you cannot commit to buying fresh flowers every week and taking care of them, you can always buy artificial flowers. They provide the same effect without the required effort.

Show your holiday spirit

Who said that holiday décor doesn’t belong on coffee tables? Although coffee tables can be small, they can still accommodate décor that celebrates the holidays. If you’re decorating for Halloween, you can place candlesticks on your coffee table to create a mysterious and spooky vibe. You can also use string lights when decorating your home for Christmas.

Incorporate decorative accents

Place a decorative accent on your coffee table to make it more interesting. You can use serving trays for this purpose, adding a splash of color and texture and organizing items at the same time. For a more artful approach, find a tray that contrasts the shape of your table or incorporate items in different sizes into your setup.
