Tricks of Interior Design
We want to let you into a little secret… If you are giving your living or family room a makeover, here’s one of the simple tricks that Interior Designers use to ‘pull together’ a living room scheme. To create an effortlessly co-ordinated and stylish look they suggest having occasional Console, Side, End and Coffee Tables which match or blend with each other. They don’t need to be exactly the same style but perhaps they all have something in common, for instance the same clear glass tops, or funky chrome legs. Then as a finishing touch, accessorise each table in a similar way, with matching photo frames, table lamps or similar ornaments to give a totally co-ordinated, sophisticated style. Here are some of our Console and Side Tables which have matching Coffee Tables to help you create a stylish and modern interior design effortlessly.Read more - Styling Tips5 Min ReadDanetti
