How To Style A Coffee Table 🔒💡🍓

Styling a coffee table is like creating a landscape of different kinds of touchable artwork💡💎💊. Here are 4 things I always keep in mind📝:

✔️Play with height to keep the eyes moving👀. Use objects with a variety of height, nothing is ever too tall or too short 🟥▪️◽️.

✔️Play with colors to create interest. No rules, all colors are welcome❤️🧡🤎💛💚💙💜.

✔️Play with texture to create contrast. Again, no rules. All materials are welcome 🤗, like wood, rattan, ceramics etc…🔒🧸⚱️📚.

✔️ And most importantly, PLAY and have FUN doing it🎈🎉!

HANGING ARTWORK

Hello @klklemz 🙋🏻‍♀️!

Thank you so much for asking📮👉🏼 “Love this. I have a question. What is your trick for hanging artwork. You do such a nice job of putting together different pieces. I have a hard time hanging two pieces together. How do you do so many and have them look so perfect?”

I appreciate you so much 😘💖🖼📐🔨🪜!

……………………………………………………………………..

Not playing by any hard-and-fast rules of hanging art. I do like starting a wall with the biggest piece of art that I will be using in the room. I love creating an element of surprise by playing with pops of colors. Creating impact by playing with different sizes of artwork. Creating contrast with different styles of artwork. Keeping in mind the colors in the existing space. Letting the pieces of furnitures, objects and artworks in the room play off each other. For me, hanging artwork is more of an intuitive process. I let the artwork speak to me. There is no right there is no wrong. Just play, play, play. I promise, the more holes you put in the wall the better you get at it. Thank you so much for watching and I’ll talk to you guys really soon. Bye.

XOXO
