In House Beautiful this month 101 Designers gave us ideas on 101 makeovers that you can do right now. There were a lot of great ideas...I took a pointer from Thomas Pheasant, "If you have a dining table that stands dormant most of the time, turn it into a library table. Collect beautiful books and create small stacks around the perimeter of the table. Place a large-scale object- like a globe, a piece of sculpture, or a fantastic topiary-in the center. Then place a small object on top of each stack. I have used tea caddies, magnifying lenses, crystal spheres. Pick anything that interests you". The pictures above our from Thomas Pheasant's portfolio.
The thing that I like about the "library table" is seeing your books...it makes you want to look at them when they are on display. Thanks for the idea Mr. Pheasant.
