Placing a sofa table behind your couch is a great way to provide display space and a little extra spot for setting a drink. A beautiful sofa table can also provide a great way to dress up the back of your sofa when you need to place it in the center of the room. A sofa spruced up with a sofa table behind it is a great way to break up a room, creating separate seating areas without the use of walls.

Sofa tables are available in any style to suit your home. Before you choose a table, consider how much of a focal point you want the table to make in your room. If your sofa table is going against a wall, hidden behind your sofa, or if you want the pieces displayed on the table to take center stage, consider a simple no fuss design, like a shaker style table. However, if your sofa table will be out in the middle of the room, you may want its details to be a focal point just as much as the items you display there. If that's the case, consider the details of your table carefully. Sofa tables with turned wooden legs or those made from curved metal can lend style and grace to your room. Choose a table with a beautifully finished wooden top or an elegant glass or marble top to give your display items a beautiful place to rest.

If you need extra display space, or a nice little bookshelf, take a look at the sofa tables available that have a bottom shelf. It's a great place to stash books or other art objects. Finally, don't forget to look at sofa tables that include small drawers. These little drawers can be great for storing little items like candle snuffers and matches out of sight.

Sofa tables can enhance nearly any living room space. Not only do they provide a great place to display your most prized possessions, they offer function and finished look to your living room.
