The Many Uses of a Console Table
Console tables come in many shapes, styles, and sizes. The diversity within this category of furniture makes console tables exceptionally versatile and useful items of décor and function. Creative people have found console tables useful for every room of the home and ways to put this beautiful piece of furniture to work are nearly limitless. The first and most popular use of console tables is in the living room or family room. Lamps, flat screen TVs, stereo systems, and other small items needing a small table to sit or be displayed on find a home on console tables. The finished surfaces accentuate the beauty of collectibles and glassware as well as serve as functional storage spaces for other decorative items. Console tables with shelves and cabinet doors provide out-of-the-way storage for anything that will fit inside from apples to xylophones. Closed doors help keep the room tidy and work especially well in bedrooms where a flat surface might be needed for a reading lamp and cabinets for storage. Doll collections, crayons and paper, and other childhood delights are kept close at hand. These types of tables also make excellent game tables for the board game crowd in the family or neighborhood. Shelving that can be closed away is perfect for storing board games, cards, and accessories. Wiis and other games can be tucked away until needed. When it’s time to play just reach into the storage space and you’re in business.
Console tables are great spots to set snacks when you’re spending time watching a movie or reading a book. Most tables are finished with a protective coating of polythene or other transparent and waterproof covering. Spills and minor disasters are easily cleaned up and the table is none the worse for wear. Hot items should be placed on pads to avoid heating the wood and damaging the protective coating. Open shelved console tables may have one or more surfaces below the table top to display household favorites on. Most folks use these under-the-tabletop shelves as spots to sit figurines, vases, framed family photos, decorative plates and glasses, and anything else of value worthy of being seen. Console tables are a natural fit for displaying any number of things due to being low where the displayed items can easily be seen and providing a visible barrier to keep decorations from being inadvertently bumped. A few consoles even have glass doors that allow for additional protection for expensive glassware, ceramic dolls, and other delicate valuables.
Shelves also work well for loose items like magazines and books that get a lot of attention and need to be stored in an organized fashion. Stacks of periodicals spreading out over the floor are both unsightly and safety hazards. Console tables often do double duty as functional tabletops for busy families and storage to keep all of those daily necessities out of sight. Whether built of inexpensive materials or crafted from oak or cherry, console tables are the most versatile pieces of furniture you’ll ever own.
