Farmhouse coffee tables come in many shapes and sizes but many share certain similarities. Most typical farmhouse coffee tables feature the use of rustic and reclaimed wood and chippy paint. These are the kinds of coffee tables that you don’t need to worry about getting ruined in the wear and tear of a busy family life.

However, there are also modern versions of farmhouse coffee tables that are more sleek and tailored. These tables are perhaps not as sturdy but just as beautiful as traditional farmhouse coffee tables.

FAQ

How should I style a coffee table?

You can go for a minimalist or a maximalist approach. If you are a minimalist, one plant or interesting art object should be enough. If you want more, collect some objects from around your home such as flowers/plants, books, small baskets, architectural objects, and of course, coasters. Consider using a tray to group smaller objects together. If you have the room, add a larger set of items like a couple of coffee table books and a larger plant to balance out the table. 

How should I decorate a round coffee table?

A grouping of three objects on a round coffee table is pleasing. For example, a pot or vase with some greenery, a large candle, and a group of books would be a good combination to start. If you want less on the table, the greenery or plant is a good option to add some texture in the room. 

What should I use for farmhouse coffee table decor?

Begin by pulling together objects that are natural or have some texture like plants, baskets, and wooden objects. Candles work well with the farmhouse style because they feel cozy. For example, find a rustic vase and fill it with greenery. Pair it with a small leather box and a candle. Place everything on a wooden tray. 

How big should a coffee table be?

A coffee table is one of the most important pieces in the living room, and a missized coffee table will not allow good flow or correct function. Because the coffee table is placed closest to the sofa, use the size of your sofa to guide you. The coffee table should be about two-thirds the width of your sofa and around 16-18 inches high. When you are choosing the shape, look at the clearances in the living room to make sure that there is at least 24-30 inches of clearance all the way around the coffee table. 

Where to buy coffee tables?

Because coffee tables are so common and important, you can find them everywhere. However, it is important to know the quality of the piece that you are buying. Study the material and reviews of the coffee table before buying it because this is a piece of furniture that has constant wear and tear. If you are a DIYer consider some of the options above to make or refurbish a coffee table that you get at an antique or thrift store. 

What is a coffee table book?

A coffee table book is a large decorative book that has beautiful photography and text. These books are fun to browse through. Thus, these are called coffee table books because anyone can grab them from the coffee table to look through while they are waiting.  

Conclusion

Farmhouse style has become one of the most popular styles in the current day, and the coffee table helps to define and balance the living room. These farmhouse coffee tables range from modern to rustic and from top-of-the-line retailers to DIY projects. Find a new farmhouse coffee table that fits your space and your lifestyle or a new project that will interest and challenge you.
