Coffee Table Conversation Starters

A coffee table is a vehicle for endless style installations and an abundance of mixing and matching. I love finding books that are meaningful to me, but also have a beautiful presence. They may bring a pop of color to the space or create a more monotone feel. There are so many other objects, personal items, candles and more that can be utilized. The list of ways to style a coffee table is truly never-ending.

Below I’ve included some of my favorite items that give my coffee tables life, style and personality.

First and foremost, books! I love collecting coffee table books that depict places I’ve traveled to, but admittedly, I also have many from places I haven’t been. Every time I browse through, I daydream up another trip. Fashion and design books are always enjoyable to admire from afar, but also to flip through to gain some great inspiration.

Beyond books, there is hardly a limit to the types of items that can go on a coffee table. I constantly find myself adding and taking away depending on what beautiful pieces I’ve come across recently. Each person has a different way of tackling this project, and it’s fun to see the different personalities that come through based on the design. Here are some of my favorite picks that go with a number of different styles.
