I've seen my fair share of empty coffee tables or ones containing the weirdest things. Maybe some apartmentites out there need a little guidance or ideas for ways to decorate their living room centerpieces and make them shine.
Check out the Top Five Things To Place On Your Apartments Coffee Table
1) Coffee Table Book- There are a ton of really awesome coffee table books out there that range from cool artwork and photos to fun trivia and quick tips. Nothing gives guests something to check out and a conversation starter like a really cool coffee table book. Make sure and pick one out that really reflects you though, otherwise it might seem out of place. If you dislike animals, it would be really weird for you to have a book on cute puppies... am I right or am I right?
2) Vases, Candles, and Other Art Pieces- Art pieces can also be eye catching on a coffee table. Whether these are yankee candles, some type of vase, or a ceramic, they will be great conversation starters and accent any room. If they are truly unique it will set itself apart from everything else in the apartment and become a working piece of art in your living room.
3 ) Baskets and Potpourri- You may place a small basket for the TV guide and your remote controls or a bowl full of potpourri in the center of the coffee table. If you use the remote basket correctly, maybe you'll stop misplacing it.
4) Magazines- Have a subscription to Maxim, Sports Illustrated, Home and Garden, or any other magazine? Throw each up to date issue on the coffee table for perusal of the latest and the greatest news in that particular periodicals range of focus. Remember though, whatever magazine you place out for people to see is a reflection of YOU so be careful what you put out there.
5) Pillows or Small Cloths- Why on earth would you put these things on the coffee table? To have a place to put your feet of course. Mama probably taught you to keep your feet off of the coffee table, but it makes a dang good foot rest. So instead of taking your feet off, put something under them. It will be a soft place for your heels and keep the table clean at the same time.
