)

*Catch a new How To every Wednesday on youtube.com/sydnesummer*

In this week’s episode of How To, I invited my dear friend, lifestyle expert Kelly Lee of KellyGolighlty, over to teach us tricks on styling a coffee table. I hope you enjoy her tips and make sure to comment on the video to let me know what you want to see in upcoming episodes!

#1 Books
– Pick pretty, colorful, and graphic books
– If you have a double layered coffee table, on the lower level be sure to symmetrically stack the books on each corner
– Always leave your fave book open showing something artsy or colorful

#2 Flowers 
– Adding a vase of flowers creates dimensions, textures and smells
–  Flowers can  last about two weeks before you have to switch them out

#3 Decorative Objects
–  Make your decorative objects personal

#4 Entertaining
– Keep a bottle of champagne out, and one chilled in the fridge
– Coral you champagne and glasses in a tray

#5 Nibbles
– Reuse cute boxes by putting the snacks in or on them
– It’s always nice to have something for quests to snack on

 “A lady always nibbles”

    Love how simple but layered this looks. Coffee tables are tricky because they get cluttered fast, but the mix of books, greenery, and different heights makes it feel styled without trying too hard.

    I’ve been redoing my living room lately and spent way too much time reading Bob’s Discount Furniture reviews https://bobs-discount-furniture.pissedconsumer.com/review.html before buying anything. Funny enough, once you get the main furniture pieces sorted, little styling ideas like this make the biggest difference.
