A marble console table is a versatile piece of furniture. It works in many rooms. A well-styled console table adds function and visual appeal to a space. This guide gives you simple ideas for styling your console table in your home.
Where to Place a Console Table
The location of your console table changes its use.
-
Entryway: Placing a console table in your entryway creates a welcoming first impression. It is a good spot for keys, mail, and a decorative bowl.
-
Living Room: A console table behind a sofa is a common choice. It adds another surface for lamps, books, or art. This placement helps divide a large open-plan room.
-
Hallway: A narrow hallway can benefit from a console table. It fills the space without blocking the path. It is a good place for photos and small decorative items.
Styling Your Console Table with Accessories
Accessories bring your console table to life. Use these ideas.
-
Lamps: A pair of matching lamps adds symmetry and light to the space. You can also use one large lamp for a modern look.
-
Mirrors or Art: Hanging a large mirror or a piece of art above the console table creates a focal point. The mirror makes a small space feel bigger. Art adds color and personality.
-
Vases and Greenery: A vase with fresh flowers or a plant adds life to the table. Greenery brings a natural element indoors.
-
Books: Stack a few books on one side of the table. Top the stack with a small decorative object. This adds texture and height.
-
Baskets or Trays: Place a tray on the table to hold smaller items. Baskets on the floor under the table provide extra storage. They are good for blankets or magazines.
