Decorate Sofa Tables And End Tables

Beach theme sofa table


Sofa tables and end tables are staple pieces in living room and family room design. Although these pieces of furniture are must-haves for most homes, they also can become catch-all places for clutter and miscellaneous items. Decorating sofa and end tables in a manner that will be aesthetically pleasing and prevent unwanted clutter is as easy as following a few simple steps. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Dust rag


Clear your space of unnecessary clutter, discarding all unwanted items. Remove all decor from your tables and use your dust rag to clean the tables.


2. Place one table lamp on each of your end tables. Push your lamp to the rear of the table, leaving most of the table as free space. Place a coaster caddy on one of the end tables and any remote controls on the other. You should avoid overloading any one table, keeping tabletop items to a minimum. Note: if you're concerned about protecting the surface of your tables, consider using placemats in place of old-fashioned doilies. They are relatively inexpensive and can take the place of coasters if you so choose.


3. Unique shallow bowl


Place your shallow bowl in the center of your sofa table and fill it with your decorative spheres. Note: the size of your shallow bowl should be in proportion with your table. Slide your decorative basket under one of your end tables to provide an alternate catch-all zone. If your family is prone to clutter, this basket can be easily stashed when company arrives, leaving your tabletops clutter free 24/7.
