Styling a Glass Coffee Table
A glass coffee table is an elegant way to add modern, sophisticated style to your living room. While it may seem intimidating to get styled, here are some tips that will help you make the most of your glass top table!
Start with a Plan
Before you start decorating, it’s important to have a plan. What type of atmosphere or theme are you trying to create with your glass coffee table?
Choose the Right Decor
When selecting items to put on the glass coffee table, look for accessories that are complementary in color and texture. Avoid bulky items and opt for ones that won’t take up too much space. Here are some fun accessories you can include:
- Stylish sculptures
- A stack of books
- A bowl of potpourri
- Fresh flowers
- A tray for coasters
Create Dimension
Glass coffee tables don’t typically have much texture, so be sure to add dimension with various heights. Stacking items like books, layered trays, or small sculptures can help create visual interest. You can also incorporate a mix of different styles of decorative objects to add depth.
Balance and Anchor
Be sure to find items that balance the coffee table and create a sense of visual harmony. If you have items that are higher in the center, make sure they are balanced out with a few lower items on the sides. You should also use an anchor piece to ensure the items don’t get scattered. Trays are an excellent choice for anchoring the pieces on the coffee table.
