A farmhouse coffee table is more than just a stylish piece of furniture or a place to throw your feet up. They are also great for storage, to show off your personal decor style, and to craft a space full of function and comfort. Perhaps most importantly, though, a coffee table anchors the design of a room. It acts as a piece to position the rest of your furniture around, which centers and defines the space. This will help any home look and feel its best but is especially important in open-concept spaces.

Another fabulous thing about farmhouse coffee tables is that there is a style for everyone and every budget. Those craving that signature rustic look will adore finishes like reclaimed barn wood and distressed paint. While those who have dreams of hosting cocktail night may prefer a large mirrored table that makes wiping spills a cinch. Shift over to the shape of the table and you have just as much variety—you can even get really creative and reuse a credenza or trolley cart!

Keep scrolling to get a glimpse of all these styles of farmhouse coffee tables and tons more. Your coffee mug will be thankful for such a stylish resting place!

When adding a coffee table that is noticeably darker or lighter than the rest of your decor, try also adding accessories in a similar tone to ensure everything blends. In this case, the horse painting and duo of dark frames mimic the table’s brown hue. It is also the perfect example of how big a coffee table should be—around the same height as your sofa and approximately 2/3 as wide.

17 Vertical Tile Backsplash Ideas to Accent Your Space

Backsplash is one of the easiest ways to infuse character into the kitchen. There are various features to consider — from material to color, finish, and of course, pattern. Horizontal backsplash is perhaps the most common tile pattern, often seen with classic subway tiles or shiplap. Vertical backsplash, on the other hand, doesn’t tend to get as much love.

The style, however, has lots of benefits. The slimmer profile looks particularly striking and can create a unique statement, whether it’s glossy emerald tiles coating an entire wall or a satisfying neutral ombre effect above the stove. Not to mention, vertical tiles draw the eye upward for the illusion of a higher ceiling. This can make a space feel more open and spacious. You can even customize the color of your grout to make the tiles pop — or feel more subtle. Curious how it looks? Check out these vertical backsplash ideas for inspiration.

30 All-Drawer Lower Kitchen Cabinets for Extra Style

When it comes to the kitchen, having ample storage is key. From bulky pots to precarious stacks of Tupperware, certain accessories can become eyesores if they don’t have a designated home. So, it’s important to be discerning with your drawers, as they are one of the pricier investments you’ll make in a kitchen remodel.

Lower drawers, in particular, are helpful, as they allow items to be easily within reach rather than reaching on tip-toe and teetering when reaching for higher-level cabinets. Plus, you don’t have to stick your head in to find items; the drawers pull open to you. From color to wood type to hardware and even features like soft-closing and paneling, there are endless ways to make your all-drawer lower kitchen cabinets complement your space and personal style. In need of ideas? Check out these lower kitchen drawer ideas for inspiration.
