At Essops Home, we offer a wide selection of beautiful console tables to suit any décor. Use these tips to style your console table and elevate your home.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT CONSOLE TABLE
The first step is choosing the right console table for your space. Consider the style, size, and storage options:
-
Style: Select a console table that matches your existing décor – modern, traditional, glam, rustic, etc. The finishes and materials should coordinate with other furniture pieces.
-
Size: Measure the space where the table will go and choose appropriate dimensions. Leave enough room for decorating and passing through.
-
Storage: If you need function, opt for drawers or shelves. Or choose a simpler open table if it's purely decorative.
Browse our collection of console tables to find your perfect match. From farmhouse to mid-century modern, we offer a range of styles to suit you.
STYLE FOR DIFFERENT ROOMS
Console tables serve different purposes depending on placement. Tailor your styling to the room:
ENTRYWAY CONSOLE TABLE
Use your entryway console to make a great first impression. Set a mirror above to check your look before going out. Place a tray on top to hold keys, mail, and other essentials. A vase of fresh flowers also welcomes guests.
LIVING ROOM CONSOLE TABLE
In the living room, decorate your console with treasured books, photos, sculpture, or other personal items you love. Consider placing table lamps on top to provide cozy illumination at night.
DINING ROOM CONSOLE TABLE
Make your console a functional buffet for entertaining. Style it with candles, decorative serveware, and pre-poured water glasses. Your guests will feel right at home.
BEDROOM CONSOLE TABLE
Bedroom consoles make excellent vanities and nightstands. Sit at your console table on a stylish chair or stool while you apply makeup. You can also keep a lamp, alarm clock, and book atop it.
DECORATE CREATIVELY
Some creative ways to decorate your console table:
- Mix heights with stack books and trays
- Add colorful vases or pots of greenery
- Display artwork, photos, collectibles
- Layer on textiles like runners and throws
- Incorporate prints, metallics, and color
- Play with shape using round, tall, sculptural objects
- Change with the seasons – florals for spring, pinecones in fall
The options are endless! The main thing is to experiment and find a look you love.
