Pink tablecloth on a round table skirt in Janet de Botton's home

Live beautiful is this blog’s most recent post category in which I’ll be posting about how to live beautifully in a more precise way and with details.  Today, we start with how to soften up any space with a skirted table.  Regardless of the shape of the table, round, square, or rectangular covering it with a tablecloth can dramatically transform any space.  From your makeup vanity to the inexpensive table that can serve you as a T.V. stand, they can all be enhanced with a table skirt.

In the case of a T.V. table, for example, the skirt can also hide storage underneath-all that unpleasant but, necessary electric cord, cable boxes, and remotes, can be hidden behind a very tailored, ideally custom-made table skirt.  The design detail can go with any home decor, from traditional to modern.  As a matter of fact, many modern Interior Designers are fans of a skirted table.

For some, this house is considered small and modest when compared to the sumptuous mansions that are usually found in the Hamptons, funny enough the house has 6,000 sq feet, 8 bedrooms and is sitting on 2.75 acres. Burch describes his style as “a very quirky sense of classicism.” Maya was able to interpret Christopher’s taste while toning down the bright color hues that characterize the owner’s popular store, C-Wonder.
