Ways to Display Nesting Tables

Nesting tables are typically sold in groups of three, where each is slightly larger or smaller in size so that the tables can be fit together to take up less space. The initial design for nesting tables was meant to make it possible to have extra small tables when necessary without taking up much space. Today, modern interior design has nesting tables being used in other ways.
  1. Cascading

    • Create a display area for trinkets and collectibles by cascading nesting tables. The tables should be arranged to resemble a staircase, where each is slightly beneath the one above it, creating a method of displaying items. As nesting tables come in groups of three or more tables, this is a method of displaying the tables that is easy to achieve, even in a small space, since each table only needs to be pulled out slightly more than the one before it.

    Stacked

    • Keep nesting tables stacked all together neatly for tight spaces or occasional use. Nesting tables make it possible to pull out additional tables whenever needed, such as for special occasions, without relying on cumbersome folding tables. Keep the nesting tables in their nesting state anywhere in a room and draw out the table that is needed when required.

    Multi Purpose

    • Utilize nesting tables individually to follow a decorating theme. Just because nesting tables come in a nested state, they are not limited to being used in this manner. Utilize smaller tables as end tables and larger tables as focal points in a room and display different items like lamps and collectibles on each table to tie them in for a common theme.

    Display

    • Display nesting tables in a grouping, with smaller tables out in front and larger tables in back and situate them in a corner or against a wall to create a unique focal point in the room. Display different items on each table, creating a shrine for memorabilia or centerpiece for a room devoted to collectibles. Rather than cascading the tables as steps, utilize their full potential by maximizing the surface space for each table.
