Is your coffee or console table a mess of magazines and clutter? Here are 3 easy tips to help you create the most gorgeous tabletop settings!<\/p>\n

When flipping through the latest home d\u00e9cor magazines you\u2019ll notice the coffee and console tables are perfectly styled with beautiful accessories and creative techniques.<\/p>\n

Now take a look at yours. How does it compare?<\/p>\n

If your coffee or console table is a mish-mash of magazines, remotes and random knick-knacks, you\u2019re not alone.<\/p>\n

Today we\u2019ll go through how to style your tabletops like a pro!<\/p>\n

Styling Tip #1: Make Use Of \u2018Over And Under\u2019 Space<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The trick to mastering a gorgeous tabletop setting is to make use of the space you have, including underneath your table.<\/p>\n

The NEW Munich Console in Grey<\/a> is the perfect\u00a0accent piece to work with.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a>

The Munich Console is a simple backdrop for various tabletop styling trends.<\/p><\/div>\n

For a traditional look, we suggest using it\u00a0as a miniature bookshelf.<\/p>\n

You can either stack your books in small clusters or line them up horizontally with a set of beautiful bookends to keep them upright.<\/p>\n

Although books seem like an average thing to display, arranging them on a console table instead of an actual bookshelf adds interest to your space.<\/p>\n

If you like a more modern look, line the bottom shelf with two beautiful bins in wicker, wood, chrome or patterned material.<\/p>\n

Not only do they help with storage and clutter, they make a streamlined statement that keeps your space looking tidy and fresh.<\/p>\n

Styling Tip #2: Use A Unique Formula<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We have an easy formula when styling a tabletop: Books + natural materials + candles + one unique object = display perfection.<\/p>\n

Our NEW Trenton Coffee Table in Distressed Pine<\/a>\u00a0is an ideal piece to practice our unique formula!<\/p>\n

\"Bottom<\/a>

Bottom shelves create ample space for books and extra storage.<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

With its stylish and industrial studded detail and gorgeous pine\u00a0bottom shelf, it provides ample space to mix and match your favorite accessories.<\/p>\n

For the top of the table we suggest using a tray to contain the elements of our formula. This gives smaller items more importance and brings a sense of unity between them.<\/p>\n

Cluster your natural materials, candles and unique objects in the tray and place the stack of books on the bottom shelf.<\/p>\n

Remember to never overcrowd the top of your coffee table, as you need room for coffee cups and putting your feet up after a long day!<\/p>\n

Styling Tip #3: Let Bold Accent Pieces Speak For Themselves<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Sometimes it\u2019s not about overcrowding your tabletop with accessories, but letting your special piece speak for itself, especially when the piece is bold.<\/p>\n

Our NEW\u00a0Bliss Console Table in Antique Silver<\/a> does just that!<\/p>\n

\"Let<\/a>

Let bold accents speak for themselves.<\/p><\/div>\n

With its chrome and tempered glass detail, the dramatic effect of its geometric cutout pattern speaks volumes in any space.<\/p>\n

This is one instance when our unique formula should be minimized.<\/p>\n

Instead of four elements, cut the number in half. Two special accessories like a shiny chrome vase and a vibrant green plant would look perfect atop this busy piece.<\/p>\n

Think of it this way: The bolder the accent piece, the lesser the accessories.<\/p>\n
