Cocktail Table With Storage  

Combine a table with storage to get the most from your furniture.  Most people prefer some type of coffee table or cocktail table with storage.  Even a single shelf at the bottom provides an extra area to place an appropriate item and help to organize and make your living room a little less cluttered.  It’ll be used as a convenient flat surface and easily accessible storage place, which makes this one of the most common furniture items in homes.

The words ‘cocktail table’ and ‘coffee table’ are often used interchangeable to refer to the same piece of furniture.  Both refer to a low type of table that sits in front of a couch or to the side, which provides the convenience of a table top to set things on.  Most handy for drinks – coffee, cocktails or anything else – the various designs and sizes will fit well into any living room décor to provide a place to put anything and easily be able to reach from the seating.  Having a low table in the living room is also great for kids and adults to have a decent table to play games on, colour, or do any other kind of crafts and hobbies. 

For a smaller style table the Southern Enterprises Espresso Pyramid Trunk Cocktail Table will take up minimal space but provide a large amount of storage.  The Wooden trunk is a basic traditional trunk with black handles at the sides and a lift top lid to reveal the full trunk space to store blankets, magazines, books and any other suitable items.  With the deep espresso finish this will fit in many different decors and bring a warm, relaxing ambience to the room.

American Drew has been producing furniture since 1927 as a division of La-Z-Boy Inc.  One of their high functioning coffee tables is the Camden Antique White Coffee Table with additional wicker basket storage.  The Camden Collection is made up of rustic finishes over solid wood to allow the character of the wood to show through.  This table has a moulded base, a rectangle wood top, 2 middle drawers and 4 baskets: 2 on each side, with the overall size being: 19”H x 48”W x 24”D.  With the charming finish of the distressed antique white, it will be a highly decorative and practical table for your living room, den or sitting room.

A truly eye catching piece that would fit perfectly in a western theme and coordinate wonderfully with leather couches and chairs is the Cowhide Cocktail Table.  The 40” square shaped cocktail table has solid wood feet, suede, cowhide and soft brown leather all combined to create a unique table for fun and sophisticated decorating.

When picking out a coffee table, first measure the sitting height of your couch and choose a table that isn’t too much lower.  Anything more than 2” shorter than your couch or chair seating will be more uncomfortable to reach drinks or other things on the table.  A cocktail table with storage is an excellent choice to add a bit of decorating charm and more space to your cozy home.
