Spring Coffee Table Decor Ideas to Elevate Your Living Room Style
Spring is almost here, and I’m more than ready for a little refresh around the house! A little spring coffee table decor update is one of my favorite ways to bring in a lighter, brighter feel to our living room.
A few easy swaps—some fresh (or faux) flowers, a pretty bowl, and my favorite blue and white pieces—instantly make the living room feel like spring. It’s such a simple way to shake off the winter blues and welcome a new season!

Spring is such fun time to decorate as the weather starts to warm, the grass starts to green, and spring blooms become plentiful. It’s a fresh start, a new beginning, and I love to create that feeling in our living room by decorating our coffee table for spring.
Our thrifted coffee table is one of my favorite pieces of furniture in our home. I was so excited the day I discovered this pretty mid-century Hollywood Regency piece with its burled wood and faux bamboo styling. I knew it had to come home with me! The price was perfect, too, which made it even better!
It’s quite a large coffee table, so it’s fun to style it for each season!
I go back and forth from season to season between filling our coffee table full of pretty things or sticking to a little more minimalist look (well, at least as minimal as I get).
Blue and white is always right, and I love all of the blue and white touches on this spring table.
Spring Coffee Table Styling: How I Decorate for the Season
When I decorate, I love to start with a few staple decor pieces that I can easily update for each season. My coffee table always has a mix of trays, books, and decorative accents that I rotate throughout the year. For spring, I swap in lighter, airy textures and soft seasonal blooms to freshen up the space.
Here’s what I used as my foundation:
- Blue and white ginger jars—because you can never go wrong with Chinoiserie! Grouping the pieces together makes quite a statement on the large coffee table.
- A large rattan tray to anchor my coffee table books. Every large coffee table needs a large tray or basket to corral books or other decorative objects. Our blue accented basket is one of my favorite pieces to bring out during the spring. I love it’s casual vibe paired with the more formal look of the blue and white Chinoiserie ginger jars. It creates a nice “high-low” decor look and creates a relaxed traditional look.
- A stack of design books for adding height to my vase.
- A decorative bowl (perfect for adding seasonal touches like my speckled eggs.)
Spring Elements I Added for a Fresh Look:
- White faux dogwood stems in my favorite blue and white vase — Adding long sprawling spring dogwood stems to the blue and white vase adds height to the coffee table.
- Speckled eggs in a decorative bowl for a subtle Easter touch. (You can always add more colorful eggs if you prefer.)
- Fun details for added interest—a colorful lantern, and a magnifying glass on top of the book stack.
My Go-To Spring Color Scheme: Blue and Green
- Blue and green are my favorite colors to decorate with year-round, but especially in spring! They feel fresh, classic, and work beautifully with my blue and white pieces.
- The green wooden lantern plays so pretty paired with the classic blue and white ginger jars.
How I Styled My Spring Coffee Table in Zones
Because my coffee table is on the larger side, I like to break it into sections to keep things balanced. Instead of filling the entire space with small pieces, I created three distinct zones that work together while still feeling effortless.
- Zone 1: The Focal Point — My blue and white ginger jars filled with long faux dogwood stems add drama and interest to one end of our table.
- Zone 2: The Decorative Accents — In the center of our table, I added a small stack of books paired with a decorative blue and white bowl full of speckled eggs for a seasonal touch.
- Zone 3: The Finishing Touches — A woven tray holds some favorite design books topped with a fun magnifying glass for a fun element.
Decorate Your Coffee Table with Books, Books, Books!
Of course, coffee table books are the perfect accessories for a spring coffee table! They add texture, height, and color to your displays and vignettes.
Not only do books provide a collected look in your room, they can create a sense of history or place in your home. They create a curated, collected style and are a perfect way to inject some of your personal interests, experiences, style, and values into your decor.

Your coffee table looks wonderful decorated for Spring! Heard KY got snow last night, I know you all will be happy when Spring happens outside too!! Stay warm, Donna
Thanks so much, Donna! Yes, Kentucky got a little snow. We were in Tennessee this weekend and got about 5 inches in Knoxville. Fortunately, the temps are warming quickly so it will all melt!
This is so pretty. I would love it if you would share it on The Fabulous Friday Link Party. You can find the link on my website.
