1. Sofa Table

Admittedly, this seems like a no-brainer….I mean, it’s in the name! But let’s talk about some tips for choosing the right sofa table for your home.

What’s the difference between a sofa table and a console table? Really just the height. Console tables tend to have a standard height whereas sofa tables vary. When shopping online, though, the two are used interchangeably.

Height: When selecting a sofa table, look for one that is close to the same height as the back of your sofa but never taller.

Length: The length of your table should be no less than 1/2 of the length of your sofa to almost the same length. My personal favorite is for the sofa table to be about 3/4 the length of the sofa.

Tip: If your sofa table is closer to 1/2 the sofa length, a great way to prevent the table from feeling like it’s too small or floating, is to flank it with chairs! Doing so visually extends the length of the table.

Other options include using large plants or baskets, again taking up more visual space.
