Candle Holder : John Lewis / Cushions Andy Hau
My living room, is also my office, so working from home as I do, its a very important room to me. It’s a true reflection I feel, on my interior style. Yes I am a little eclectic and vintage in my style, but I do embrace new trends, and weave them into my interiors where I can.
Well with this in mind I wanted to show you part of my living room, and my new (I have fallen so deeply for) side or occasional table from WITHIN. WITHIN sells beautiful and affordable furniture and accessories for the home. Its based in London’s West End and is founded by Alison Cork, who is a TV presenter, and home expert. Alison has been penned The Oprah Winfrey of Home Interiors, she works though with a very simple message and belief “Everyone deserves a beautiful home”.
You can actually spot my desk which is just behind my two-seater sofa, and where I am writing this today.
The Huxley occasional table showcases the trend that is huge at the moment, of luxurious interiors and metallics but it is also a retro shape and style, which I love!
W54 x D28 x H55cm
It arrived within a few days of ordering and was assembled by the delivery driver, who also took away the packaging. A small thing but this really impressed me, he even wore gloves to not damage the table in any way.
It is priced very reasonably at £245, really lovely quality, heavy and well finished, the glass is tempered glass for safety. I feel it blends in well, into my scheme, and I can’t tell you how handy it has been for drinks and as a place to put my kindle in the evening when I am reading. I don’t have an electricity socket in this part of the room, so instead I made a wine bottle light which you can see above, but it would look great with a table lamp.
I’ve played around with dressing it, treated myself to an orchid from my local garden center, adding a cacti in a matching white pot too. The lower shelf gives the illusion that its floating from some angles, which is a lovely design touch.
Thank you to WITHIN for gifting me this table, this certainly won’t be the last thing I order from the site, I’m smitten! Have you checked out the site, what’s your favourite piece?

I can’t stop looking at it Jen! Thanks for the comment x
Carolin says
I can see why you’re in love with it. It’s a beautiful. I live your candle holders too. The copper base really makes them stand out x
Amanda Cottingham says
Thank you Carolin, I do really like them, I treated myself to them the other day. Only problem is they were described as gold not copper, so they clash a bit, but I liked them too much to return them.
Penny says
It always looks gorgeous your living room, but it looks perfect now!
Kate/WitWitWoo says

Oh it’s GORGEOUS! I have an incongruous yellow and green child’s chair from a certain Swedish company as my side table – it doesn’t really ‘work’ in my, otherwise gorgeous, sitting room! I love the elegance of this one and that you don’t have to assemble it yourself – how fab is that?!
Emma says
That table is gorgeous, as is your room/office! I can’t wait to live in our own home again instead of rented. It’s so stifling not being able to make your mark on a place! 😀
Mari says
This would be perfect for the tiny gap I have between sofa and door plus it’s beautiful too. I am in love with it too.
Otilia says
Beautiful table so chic! I would love one to have next to my couch too!
Mum of One says
What a lovely shape? Your home looks just beautiful and so light and airy.
Jane (Northernmum) ( says

Donna says
What a lovely idea. I currently use an old speaker stand to balance my drink on when I’m sitting on the couch. This is gorgeous. Love the website – the bedding sets are beautiful.
Jen says
It looks gorgeous Amanda, great for the end of a sofa. Love the wine bottle light too 😉
Boo Roo and Tigger Too says
