How Do I Make a Cheap Sofa Table Work for Me?

1. Structure a seating area around your main focal point. Your sofa should sit parallel to this focal point. (Maybe this is your fireplace or your entertainment center.)

2. Position a cheap sofa table up against the back of your sofa.

3. Accent this table to your hearts content! Pictures work great. Greenery, vases, all kinds of decorative accents are fantastic!

Here's another way this works well. Let's say you've got a small living room space in an otherwise open floor plan and you want to make the "clean break" to give your living room a better definition. Use that same cheap sofa table behind your sofa. If your living room is carpeted you can line the sofa table up on the edge of the carpet. However, you'll get even better results if your living room is not carpeted.

The sofa table will act as a sort of stylish hallway that makes that walk between your living room and the bordering room a joy instead of an inconvenience.

Now that you have a couple ideas on what to do with this cheap sofa table we need to spend some time thinking about what kind of table will work best in your living room.

Traditional
Queen Anne sofa table.

The sofa table we most often see associated with traditional style is the Queen Anne . You could call this Early American, or maybe Victorian as well, but to keep it simple, how about we just roll all those styles into the traditional family.

This one is from StacksandStacks.com and is fine combination of quality and price.

Mission

Mission style convertible sofa table. Mission style features square and rectangular shapes and lines with those familiar slats. Jen and I have different opinions on mission style. I love it but it's really not her thing. What you think is what's really important!

Check out this convertible mission sofa table from EverythingFurniture.com. Set it up behind your sofa and whenever you need extra room for dining or gaming, extend it and drop in the leaf. All that and an awesome price.

Country

Pine apothecary sofa table.

When we think of great country decorating, Jennifer's Dad's house in Tennessee comes to mind. The lighter woods, the reminders of days gone by, the overall casual air.

This apothecary sofa table is a wonderful reminder of country style decorating from Bellacor.com

Contemporary

Metal and glass sofa table.

Now we're talkin'. Contemporary is "the style of the day" which makes it the most flexible of decorating styles. Clean, sleek lines and simplicity are the bedrocks of contemporary style and they show especially well in this metal and glass sofa table from StacksandStacks.com.

All of these tables have two things in common...

Great style and great value!

Finding great furniture for your home doesn't have to put you in the poor house. Cheap sofa tables are a super value and they're versatile.
