Steps to styling a coffee table 1. Place a wood bowl on top of two covered books. 2. Add filler to the bowl. I love glass decorative balls but if you have kids, use rattan balls. 3. Style a vase with faux or real flowers or greenery. 4. Flank that pairing with a coffee table book that matches your decor or cane boxes. #coffeetable #coffeetablestyling
