Best Coffee Table Books for Decorating & Gifting

I live for a fabulous coffee table book. When I first moved into my house it was the thing I was most excited for when it came to decorating, and that hasn’t changed. Whether you go with colorful books, or neutrals, pretty coffee table books are an easy way to add character to a room. I change mine up all the time, moving them from room to room and building different stacks of color. Coffee table books aren’t just for decorating for yourself, they’re also amazing gifts, especially for the girl who has everything.

Many of the books I’m sharing in this guide may look plain on the front cover, but some of them have surprisingly chic bindings. My guide for the best coffee table books for decorating & gifting are mainly categorized by color group, but some of the ones in the neutral section have a different bind than what you may suspect! Feel free to message me about any of these books and I would be happy to do some research for you; I may even have it at home!

Mix & Match Book Types

When it comes to styling coffee table books, I like to mix genres as well. I’ll stack fashion with home decor, and travel with Audrey Hepburn. There really is no method to my madness, other than deciding which color bindings I like together. I usually do, however, stack most cocktail books on the bar cart, and keep most cookbooks together, unless they really look much more like a coffee table book than cookbook.
