These storage units are not solely just for books. With some creativity, these clever units can hold so much more than just books – office binders, framed photos, indoor plants, plastic tubs of kids’ toys. your record collection, the list goes on. For the perfect display, combine practical items (like books and files) with objects that offer visual interest (think vases, sculptures, candles or gems collected during your travels).

This coffee table comes with a table that is adjustable to suit your different needs. To extend the table simply unfold it to get a wider table area. We like how it also comes with four stools with their own storage space underneath the seat as well!

3. Sideboards and buffets

These stand-alone pieces can hide special-occasion serving ware, bins of toys end craft supplies underneath, while lamps, plants or a standing mirror can decorate the top. Look for a combination of cupboards and drawers, or have one custom-made.

Try decorating the top with a framed family photo like this one from Hipvan. With a unique multi-dimensional frame, it creates a floating picture effect that would definitely make a statement on your sideboard.
