What are some useful tables in a home that get unnoticed?

Give the hallway or areas behind a sofa a consideration for a console table!

The addition of a console table, sofa table, or hallway table adds function and value to your home. It also adds another useful way to decorate your home without taking up too much space while making your home more visually interesting. Make sure to keep in mind height when creating your sofa table. The top of your table should be as tall as your sofa. This allows lamplight shining down on reading material. It also makes it easier to pick things up from the top of the table.


A sofa table can be an excellent entry way to the living room and be a welcoming transition from one room to the next. Use the tabletop as display space for photos, historical artifact display or unique dishes that hold yummy chocolates. Storage can also be an excellent use for a sofa table. You can add baskets to store pillows or blankets under the hardwood top. Pay extra attention to the space between the top and bottom space of the table to make sure the baskets you order are the correct height and fit the space appropriately. Also consider the storage under sofa tables for extra seating. A few extra barstools can be a great way to allow for more seating when you have a few extra friends or relatives over.

A console, sofa or hallway table allows additional space to display your favorite books or picture frames. You may also find decorative pillows can be placed on a lower shelf of a console table. Give yourself more places to display decorations and unique artifacts and accessoreis by adding a sofa table. You can make decorations stand out by allowing the rich wood characteristics of wood grain and color to work in your favor. Without a sofa table, there is typically just empty space so filling that area is one of the most functional uses for a table like this. Your living room or hallway may have large areas of unused space which is one of the main benefits of a console, sofa or hallway table.
