How To Choose Accent Tables?

Are you shopping around for accent tables? Should you choose acrylic, wood or metal? With or without drawers? Drawers or shelves? Deciding on all these factors can be overwhelming. To help you select the best accent tables, we’ve compiled a list of helpful guidelines:

Height

Height is one of the most important concerns. Ideally, the height of your accent table should be just below or equal to the arm of the sofa or chair beside it. This accomplishes two feats: it provides a clean visual flow in the space and makes the accent table within easy reach particularly when you have to set your coffee mug down or turn off the lamp.

If you’ve got an armless seat, you can always go for a short accent table. Tables displaying graduated heights such as stepped and nested tables defy convention because you can place them anywhere. They also offer multi-tasking benefits.

Look

As you’re browsing through various accent table options, you’ll immediately notice the variety of shapes and designs out there. If in doubt, think about selecting a piece that would add some contrast to your space. For instance, have a look at existing furnishings. Is your space dotted with bold patterns or upholstered furniture? Then opt for an accent table with clean and streamlined edges. If you’ve got lots of leggy pieces, opt for an ornate or chunky accent table.

Accent Tables

Shape

You can select a shape based on bringing balance to your space. For instance, if you’ve got a square-shaped room, consider round accent tables. The round shape never goes out of style; in fact, it’s the safest shape to consider. Square tables will offer more surface space for accessories and lamps, so definitely consider what you plan to place on top of the table. Square tables are also easy to fit into corners or between sofas.

Function and Storage

Ensure the functionality of your accent table is designed to meet your needs. If you require extra storage room for tablets, games, remotes, magazines, books, etc., look for an accent table with open shelves and or drawers.

Finish

To add more variety to your space, consider the finish of your accent table. You can opt for natural wood grain, glass, metal, stained/polished, etc.

So how many modern accent tables does space really need? The general rule of thumb is one accent table for every seat. However, this depends on how much room you have in your space.  Whether you need one accent table or a few, every space requires them.

How To Shop For Modern Furniture?

When you move into a new home, you get excited about furnishing with new, modern furniture. This furniture style may have its design roots in the past, but it boasts many space-saving, luxurious and aesthetic elements. Put together, modern furnishings can make a small home look organized and spacious and a large home look warm and cozy.

As you browse around for modern furniture online, you’ll come across many retailers with beautiful furnishings. With the following tips, you can select some of the most suitable and attractive furnishings for your home:

Size of your Space:

Before making any purchase, take measurements of your home. We recommend taking the tape and actually taping your floors so that you get a visual representation of how large your sofa set, recliner, coffee table, bed, etc. should be. It’s easy to get carried away by all the choices out there but imagine an oversized sofa in a small living room. That would seem like a nuisance. 


When you tape your floor, you will also get an idea about the space around the furniture, i.e. walking space. You don’t want guests to stub their toes each time they have to make their way to the sofa. As you’re browsing for furniture online, look for the piece’s measurements and take the time to tape them into your space. This will give you an accurate indication about how well this piece will fit in.

Quality of the Furnishings:

The quality of your furniture is key to how long it will last. Ideally, you want your furnishings to last for some time. This means you need to understand the different terms used to describe different grades of wood.

MDF - Stands for Medium Density Fibreboard. It is made by crushing wood chips into minute fibres and mixing in glue. The resulting mixture is fused with pressure and heat to produce a board of wood.

Plywood - This material is made from super thin wood layers which are bonded tight at right angles to the grain.

Lacquer - A durable coating of varnish applied in multiple layers, ranging from glossy to matt. This is done to protect the furniture’s surface.

Engineered Wood - This restricted particleboard, composite wood and or plywood.

Particle Board - The wood panels are made by gluing together synthetic resins and wood particles under intense pressure and heat.

Solid Wood - A term used to describe the high quality, ‘real’ wood. 


Comfort:

One of the biggest reasons why we buy furniture in the first place is to provide comfort. This can be hard to do when shopping online, but there are pointers you can look out for which provide information about comfort.

For sofas, armchairs, ottomans, etc., there should be an adequate amount of padding. Most retailers mention the amount or thickness of filling/foam in the sofa or chair. Next, look at the upholstery material. Linens are some of the best upholstery materials as are velvets. The weave of the material will also make a big difference. Generally, the tighter the weave the more durable it is.

4 Stylish Ways Of Decorating Your Modern Coffee Table

Adding a modern coffee table to your living or drawing room is an innovative way of breathing new life into your décor scheme. After placing the table appropriately with the right accessories, you will experience a feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment.

Not many homeowners realize the importance of stylizing their coffee table. In fact, it is one of the simplest and most affordable ways of showcasing both your personality and style. 

Coffee Table

Check out the following four ways of enhancing your modern coffee table:

1.  Decide Function:

Keep in mind, your coffee table will do more than be a resting place for coffee, tea, and drinks. It’s going to be the hub of many family discussions, a hovering place where friends meet and perhaps a place where you like to rest your feet after a stressful day at work. Since your coffee will be doing many things, avoid excess clutter on its surface. You can display a trinket or too, but if your coffee table is going to be busy it’s better to place them on a tray so that you can quickly stow the trinkets away.

2.  Personalize your Design:

Embrace your passion. For instance, are you an ardent fan of reading? Do you love solving puzzles? If so, why not display some of your prized reading materials on your coffee table? They’re a great conversation starter! Similarly, are you a candy junky? Place some of your favourite treats in a sealed, glass container and put them in the centre of the coffee table.

3.  Embrace Nature:

Adding a little green into your space is always beneficial. It also freshens up the room. Select a plant that can survive in the indoors, i.e. with minimal external light. Golden Pothos or Spider plant, Aloe Vera or even succulents are excellent choices. Keep the size to scale.

4.  Preserve Balance:
Avoid cluttering your coffee table. This means refraining from placing too many elements on the table’s surface. To create balance, add just two to three elements to your table. To determine if you’ve done something correctly, place your accessories and then look at the table from various angles. For example, if you’re placing a pair of novels on one end, contrast it with a small vase or flower pot on the other end. Does it seem balanced?

Decorating your modern is a fun and creative experience. Don’t stress out too much. Enjoy yourself in your new design venture. To shop for your beautifully crafted modern coffee table, visit Creative Furniture Store.

5 Modern Beds Designs To Indulge In!

If you’re shopping for modern beds, you’re probably looking at factors like size, durability, storage space and whether it pairs well with the rest of the furnishings. But don’t forget, design matters just as much, especially since the bed is such an important focal point in the room.

A bed is such as important furniture to have. You spend nearly one-third of your life in it. It helps you rest and recover, not to mention build your immunity. Quality sleep affects every aspect of your life, from work performance, memory to even internal health.

Modern Beds

So when you’re shopping for modern beds, we urge you to look out for these innovative designs:

1. Guest Bed:

In this modern bed style, there is a second mattress which is cleverly tucked under the main bed frame. It enables you to use the bed as it is on a regular day or as a double in case you feel like being extra comfortable or to even accommodate an overnight guest. In a guest bed, the second mattress is hidden within the bed frame, so you don’t have to worry about extra storage.

The main focus in this bed style is practicality. It features spring-assisted legs which can level up once you pull out the second mattress.

2. Ottoman Bed:

Ottoman beds have a large storage compartment underneath. The mattress rests on a frame that can easily lift upwards without moving the pillows or covers. This bed is ideal for homes with limited storage capacity. You can use this extra space to stow away anything and everything from pillows, to sheets to winter wear.

Some ottoman beds have storage spaces that are split into sections, providing additional organization.

3. Cabin Bed:

This bed style is similar to a mid-sleeper or bunk bed. Cabin beds are higher than regular beds. The frame rises up which pulls the mattress up from the floor and unlike a bunk bed, you don’t need a ladder to get into bed. The height of your cabin bed will vary according to its design. In addition, there is a storage space underneath the bed for easy-to-access storage. This is a great place to store toys and books which children can easily reach.

4. Day Bed:

These multi-functional beds act like a sofa during the day and are transformed into cozy beds at sunset. They are also perfect for apartment living because you don’t need to purchase an extra bed or sofa; you get two-in-one.

5. Upholstered Bed:


In an upholstered bed, the bed frame is covered in a durable, soft fabric which includes some type of cushioning. It consists of a headboard and with a subtle design that is also upholstered, often in tufted buttons or seams which adds texture and depth. This modern bed design adds warmth and elegance to your bedroom space.
