Like most things in my rental home, my kitchen table wasn't exactly styled. I'm in between house buys, and we unpacked in a hurry, thinking we'd only be here three months. Six months in, and the table I eat at, work at, and use to dump everything on has become the hardest working piece of furniture in the house – and one of the least inviting.
I wasn't really looking for tips on how to style a kitchen table when I was recently speaking with furniture designer Fred Rigby, I was looking for big, impactful changes and an insight into upcoming furniture trends. But he mentioned a very small and simple idea that would help elevate my table immediately. An affordable addition which, he told me, would change everything – adding a lamp.
