Coastal Decor Ideas for Console Tables

Styling a Console Table #1:
Visually anchor your console table on the wall with a generously sized art piece or a mirror. Alternately, opt for multiple smaller works arranged cohesively to create a focal point. This serves as the foundation for the rest of your arrangement.


Styling a Console Table #2:
Bring in at least one piece that’s taller than the lower edge of the artwork’s or mirror's frame. A table lamp, candle holder or a vase, for example.


Styling a Console Table #3: 
Whatever pieces you choose, be sure to overlap a few of them slightly so that the groupings feel easy and natural. Place coastal decor items at varying heights to create an engaging visual rhythm. To give an item height you can place it on a box or stacked books or magazines.
