Farmhouse Coffee Table

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.
