Accent tables add to the overall aesthetic of a room. They serve both a decorative and functional purpose. Since the accent table category encompasses a variety of styles, shapes, sizes and materials, choosing the right fit for your home can appear to be a daunting task at first. This article will help you make sense of the different types of accent tables in order to help you decide which tables work for you.
The great thing about accent tables is that they fit anywhere in any décor. So, start searching for yours today. With so many sizes and designs available you'll find it to be quite difficult not to find one that fits your style. You might just find one to brighten every room in your home. From the Asian allure of a vibrant red rattan chest to the French flair of a black striped table the addition of accent tables in any room really makes your house feel like home.
End Tables: An end table is a small table placed beside a chair or at each end of a sofa. It should be relative in depth to the arm of the chair or sofa it flanks. Additionally, it is wise to choose a table that is proportionate in scale to the surrounding furniture. For example, an overstuffed sofa calls for a table larger or bulkier in size while a petite wing chair needs a smaller table with a more delicate frame and lines. A current design trend is to mix and match styles and shapes. In fact, rather than matching all the furniture in a bedroom suite, some people choose to use mix and matched end tables in lieu of night stands. If you are unsure about whether or not your tables fit together, a good rule of thumb is to try to coordinate the table legs with the lines and curves of your furniture.
Big or small, round or square accent tables can add style and storage space to any décor. They are perfect for the entryway, the hallway or any spot you need a table. Whether you want to brighten a drab spot in a room or simply need a table alongside the bed accent tables are the way to go. They are a fun and easy way to add to the look and feel of your home.
