Coffee Tables

Question of the day...do you all keep things on your coffee tables? Our coffee table is glass - a remaining relic from Justin's bachelor days. I keep thinking about replacing it, but it seems to work perfectly for our needs at the moment. The glass top makes it seem "open" in our tiny condo & the surface is easy to clean and requires no coasters for our cups. All in all - low maintenance, which I dig immensely.

We keep absolutely nothing on our coffee table. I didn't even bother taking a photo as it is so blank and boring, hence the Martha Stewart photo above. Do you all keep remotes on your coffee table, magazines, plants, etc? For whatever reason, I like keeping ours clear of objects. Thoughts/Opinions?

I love the look of the c.table above. That is what I would get if I was looking for one....Since we are tight on space, we have an upholstered ottoman for a c.table. We slide it out from under a console table for eating and foot propping. Otherwise it sits under a console table. I have a tray on it that holds some magazines the remotes, random stuff...

Oh - I love that you slide it in & out from under a console table. GREAT idea! I also love your tufted ottoman - very cool.

Our coffee table has a bowl for clickers on it - and then opens up to hide magazines. I love the look of this coffee table. I have no issues with stuff on a coffee table, but the Ice House sort of calls for the minimalist look...
