I wanted to know what was the best way to decorate my coffee table, what kind of items would you suggest? I appreciate any ideas

    Can't go wrong with a nice orchid arrangement! I buy them at Lowes or make up my own depending on how long each plant lasts.

    One of the theories for this is to bring together the three items into a cohesive unit together, instead of them being separated like they are now.

    You have no relationship going there in any of the items, the plant seems to be barely surviving

    Put the twine balls in a heavier /non glass bowl

    Lose the plant to a place with more light - a kitchen windowsill

    Out with the pedestal blue ( brain cramp /name!!)

    More like below..... : )






    Add a larger rug to the list..?

    Think layers. Stacked coffee table books, a tray with an object grouping, etc.

    That Wedgwood piece is amazing!!! Oh my goodness my heart is singing. I love it.
    BUT — it does not belong there 🤩😬

    Given tastes can vary by so much, don’t want to suggest specific items…the main goal is anchoring and using pieces you love. I like to experiment witn different items until I’m liking the feel. Some people use a grouping of 3, scale, tray, height variations and different textures.


    The items below all work well together and it feels more interesting with height. Buy a bunch of items you love and test them together (and return what didn’t work). If you need help, there are endless articles on this subject.

    A basket of dog toys and the tv remote control. There are enough decorative items elsewhere that show well.

    I love your space. It's beautiful! I love the dark painted built in with the white accent pieces. The little blue item while sweet doesn't fit well. I would also take the planter away and maybe use large coffee table books.

    Less is more.

    I agree with @Boxerpal - love your space - your furniture pieces seem MCM era to me. I like the touches of yellow / gold / white throughout. Does that vintage pattern chevron afghan live on sofa? Yes, please! Love the circle lamp on console table. I agree the small Wedgewood pedestal dish doesn’t fit coffee table & the planter too. I mentally rearranged some pieces - more than what you asked I know but I do it in my own home a lot. It gives me a fresh perspective on my treasures. The 2 pretty white vases on console table - vintage I think. They would look great on console in dining area & show up much better - one on each end framing the art. There’s too much going on behind the sofa with them & lamp & also with the lovely collection in the china cabinet. Removing the vases makes items in cabinet grab the eye instead of stopping at the 2 tall vases which show up better on their own & with a wall behind them & the overhead lighting you have. On coffee table, leave the tray & place the gold ”balloon” dog that’s on TV console in the tray with the coasters & TV remote & something else that fits with dog figurine. The horse on dining console would be great on TV console against its black color & it would show up more too. I thought the balls of twine in covered jar would be great as centerpiece on dining table. The texture & colors would be nice with those great chairs.
