Pinspire Me: Bedside Table Styling

For the past year I have switched out three different bedside tables, finding each one more difficult than the last one to style! For this post, I have collected three very different types of tables that have been beautifully decorated. This way, I can no longer blame the table for my lack of inspiration. Enjoy!

At first, I was captivated by this bright cobalt blue table. After reading the entry I found out this was a custom color from a fabric swatch, what a great idea to pull all the items in the room together. After taking a closer look I realized I also really like the styling. Nice height provided by the lamp and different frames and that cute little clock is a HomeGoods find! Overall, I think this table along with the decor is a win!

Y’all know me, I can’t pass up anything with an owl, that includes anything on Pinterest. Besides the owl, I love the basic white look on this table along with that nice wooden box. The blogger does not go into detail on the contents of the box but something similar would be helpful for me. Also, that lamp, I WANT.

And finally, this excellent example of what chic really looks like. Let me start with the table, the glossy white color and the curvy and sturdy leg, just beautiful. Someone help me find a table like this, please! Anyhoo, it turns out the nightstand was finished for a design contest, I hope the blogger won because this is perfect to me. I really like the lamp with the big acrylic base next to that tray with a nice, sleek and modern clock. It all looks so nice and I hope to recreate something similar.

Overall, I feel inspired to replicate these looks on my own. The first step will definitely be finding a cute and useful table. Does anybody have any suggestions on where to look? I hope to accomplish this soon! And will definitely keep y’all posted! Til then, I hope everyone has had a great week!

Pinspire Me: Coffee Table Styling

For the past few months I have been experiencing a bad case of the coffee table blues. As soon as I resigned my lease I started thinking of all the projects I’ve accomplished in the past year and how happy I am with my space at the moment, all except for my coffee table. I bought a temporary coffee table a year ago and sadly, it is still in my possession with one broken leg from my attempts to move it with my foot. As I was looking through my home decorating board on Pinterest I became green with envy at all the beautifully styled coffee tables I have collected and not pursued. I decided to stay positive and share these inspirations with you all to hopefully motivate me to get a move on styling that coffee table, even if it has to mean keeping the temporary one.

I love the idea of combining three drum stools to function as a coffee table. These were specifically used as multi-function furniture as they can also serve as extra seating for company. Now, the drum stools were definitely enough to sell this photograph to me but the styling is what really sealed the deal for me. I just love that brass tray, perfect for a candle, flowers, or drinks for your guests. I also couldn’t resist that candy tray, at least I think its candy, full to the brim and ready to surprise any guest with a sweet tooth.

Watermelon pink. I fell head over heels for this coffee table, particularly the color. After reading the blog entry and hearing that this was her compromise, settling on one pink home accessory, I think she chose perfectly. The modern lines of the table make sure that the table is not too feminine or frilly (not that there is anything wrong with that!). I also love the idea of fresh flowers on the coffee table, providing a fresh scent as I am watching tv reading.

I first pinned this photograph for that beautiful brass bar cart and those watercolor-esque floral pillows, just perfect. Taking a closer look, I noticed those snakeskin coffee tables. I really like the subdued animal print, it pairs really well with that bright red tray. This coffee table was created by two side tables placed next to each other and really get the job done. As I am looking for a new table I will be looking at this picture the most for inspiration, for sure. P.S. Can someone please buy me an “Everyday I’m Hustlin” pillow!

I hope you have enjoyed my coffee table roundup, I know it has definitely motivated me and taken me out of my dark and green place. I do not know how soon I can go coffee table shopping, but that doesn’t mean I can’t style my already owned/slightly broken coffee table. I hope to share some update on that soon!

Til then, I hope everyone has a great weekend! You will most likely catch me near a pool and a wine glass! Talk to y’all soon!
