Need Help With Choosing a Coffee Table
Comments (8)One idea I saw on Houzz was to use a child's table (round) as a coffee table. I thought that was a neat idea. You could get a wooden one at a good price. Not this one, as I think a darker color would be better, but as an example-- you can choose the height and diameter (18" would be good): $158 It has a laminate top, so you would not have to worry about chipping, AFAIK. Another possibility would be to look at MCM coffee tables-- they often have laminate tops as well and I think would look good with your furniture (w/o actually having seen the room)....See MoreNeed Help Choosing Coffee Table
Comments (12)Yes, because the axis of the room seems to run parallel to the light cove, I'm recommending the furniture be arranged that way also. Of course this may be out of scale and some how not work with adjacent rooms, but it's my take on your situation. Doesn't cost you a dime to move furniture around and try it out. I just like to have my chandeliers some how align with tables or seating arrangements. Sorry drawing is half plan / half wall elevation, but you get the point....See MoreHELP CHOOSING CHAIRS FOR THIS TABLE IN NEED OF IDEAS NEED YOUR HELP

Comments (5)I also like your ottoman. I also have one that can be pulled up to the sofa in order to form a chaise on one end (or just pulled up even with the middle of the sofa - so that everyone can put their feet up while watching a movie). I decided to have a wood waterfall table made that fits over the ottoman = it works better than a tray when using the ottoman as a coffee table (it's on recessed wheels - so, it can simply be rolled over to one side - or completely away from the ottoman). I agree with Olychick - you don't need a larger rug + you can use some pillows to tie the ottoman and sofa (sectional) together. If you decide to keep the ottoman + select some pillows, take a photo of it from in front of the sofa - people will be able to suggest some art for your wall. It looks like those photos may be black and whites of your children? If so, I think that they can work with your room. I know the "style" is to completely de-personalize everything on your main floor - but I don't know why that became the rule for design. You could add some colored mats to the photos - I've seen some nice looking suede ones that were done in colors to help tie other items in a room together (similar to using the accent pillows)....See MoreRelated Professionals
