The home decor upgrades won’t be stopping anytime soon, and next on the agenda for me is organizing this coffee table. I’ve finally decided that I’d like to incorporate some book decor, but specifically Black-Owned Coffee Table Books. Featuring Black artists, or Black stories.
So, I’ve been on the hunt for chic coffee table books that make a statement and would be great for guests to browse through. In doing this search, I was able to find a plethora of options and wanted to share a few standouts in case you’re looking to upgrade your collection!
