Coffee Table Shopping Guide

You all been loving my coffee table finds so I wanted to put together a shopping guide of the classic styles – round, rectangular, and square. Each style coffee table provides something unique and different to a space. Whether you want your living space to appear bigger, or you want ample space to create a beautiful coffee table styling – there is something in here for you! Keep scrolling for coffee table designs you are bound to love!

Round Coffee Tables

Round coffee tables are great for smaller spaces! Their soft lines and lack of sharp edges help make a room appear to be larger. Who doesn’t love wide open spaces? Round coffee tables also tend to be a bit more unique compared to the traditional rectangular and square styles. If the area you are shopping for has a little more foot traffic than usual, a round coffee table design is your best bet! They typically take up a little less floor space leaving ample room to walk around.

rectangular coffee tables

Rectangular coffee tables may be the exact style you think of. They lean a little more towards to the traditional side when it comes to design. This style coffee table is ideal for closed off spaces. Ours serves as the centerpiece for this seating area – it anchors the space. You can find our rustic modern coffee table here!

Rectangular coffee tables are the ideal design for larger sofas or seating areas featuring extra chairs. You know what’s even better? There is plenty of room for your favorite coffee table decor finds!

square coffee tables

For those of you who love symmetry, the square coffee table design is for YOU! There is something about those clean, even lines that brings a sense of order and structure to a living space. This coffee table design is well-suited for contemporary and minimalist spaces! However, square coffee tables do offer the flexibility and versatility to be styled in several different rooms. This one resides in our outdoor seating area but could easily be moved to any other outdoor space or even inside!

Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard Comments OUTDOOR for all the info on our backyard furniture and decor! Unfortunately, when I get an idea I can’t stop until it’s done 😉. I got an itch to swap out our three chaise lounges for a large U-Shape sectional to create more seating and lounging poolside. I knew there was only one brand who could make this happen… I worked with @polywood to design a sectional that would be a complete custom fit for this little nook. I used the Braxton 6 Seat Sectional and added additional modular seats to get this look. I LOVE how it turned out! They can make anything happen! 

POLYWOOD outdoor furniture is made out of recycled plastics, making it durable in all weather climates. They also have a 20 year warranty.

POV: working with what you have and creating somet POV: working with what you have and creating something completely new! I kept all the original flooring, cabinets, backsplash and fixtures and did only cosmetic updates to update this space. I wanted to add more contrast, character, warmth and texture. By smoothing out the texture of the walls it instantly gave it an updated look, the new paint color added contrast, the wood ceiling added warmth and texture and all the antiques and vintage pieces gave it the charm. 🖤

This was a true example of working with what we have, turning something with great bones into something that is unique, custom and full of character.

My @worxtools Switch Driver and Impact Driver were the real MVP’s of this project! Saving me time and energy. I love how it now doubles as a shelf to display antiques I’ve collected throughout the years and also helps me keep this place organized!
