27-Inch Tables to Accessorize Your Space

Whether you're decorating a living room or creating a quiet seating area for two, adding a 27-inch table is a great final addition to the space. These tables are specifically designed to fit beside a standard seat in a home, providing a place to rest a book or your favorite beverage. Pottery Barn offers a vast array of tables from which to choose, making it easy to discover the ideal fit for every space at a price that fits within your decorating budget.

Selecting 27-Inch Tables For Your Room

Accent tables come in a wide array of sizes, styles and designs to choose from. Finding the one that makes the ideal addition to your space requires considering a few key factors.

• Size: The table you select needs to be the right scale for the space it's decorating. If you have a single accent chair, a small side table is appropriate. If the accent table will be next to a large sectional or king bed, a larger size will look more appropriate. Choosing nesting tables is a great way to get additional surface area when you need it while added additional dimension.
• Material and Finish: Every element you place in your room is an opportunity to add style. Consider the existing furnishings and finishes in the space when browsing the extensive collection at Pottery Barn. Use the existing color scheme to narrow down the search and hone in on pieces that will help you achieve the look you're going for. Natural wood, rustic metal and chic glass are all materials that can be seen throughout these pieces.
• Functionality: The actual design of the table goes a long way to determining the functionality of the side table. Tables with lower shelves, integrated magazine racks, flip-down surfaces and integrated drawers will provide more versatility of design than a standard table. As you shop for tables, consider the needs of the space and choose a table designed to best meet those needs.

Styling Your 27-Inch Tables

Once you've selected the table that will make the perfect addition to your sitting or sleeping area, it's time to style the space. Treat the top of the table as a fashionable vignette for your home. First, consider the functionality of the table, adding a lamp, coasters and other essentials you need to have on hand. With the essentials added, you can start infusing a little color and personality with decorative accessories, such as an arrangement of flowers or a few nostalgic decorative items.
