 Pink flamingo table If you enjoy a sense of fun in your home furnishings, then how about this unusual pink flamingo table?
It’s been cleverly designed in the shape of a flamingo, with the two table legs angled in the same spindlely way as a flamingo. In order to balance the table and make it functional for using, the third table leg is designed to be like the head and long neck of a flamingo. It’s a really fun piece and, although rather quirky, has a certain degree of elegance about it.
As someone who’s been fascinated by seeing pink flamingos in the wild, the table very effectively captures the shape and activity of flamingos, especially the idea of the head dipping down into the water to hunt for food.
The pink flamingo table is available to purchase from Blue Sky via Bouf, a company run by a design graduate and ex-boat builder who now specialises in making furniture and cabinets.
If you can’t get enough of flamingos, then check out this post regarding pink flamingo wallpaper from Cosy Home Blog.

Would you choose one of these stools to go in your home? Do you love the design or loathe it?
The ceramic Bonze stools are part of the Xo range by designer Philippe Starck. Possibly not to everybody’s taste, the sculptural piece with a face in the base doubles up as both a stool and a small side table. It’s been produced in a range of colours, including platinum, gold, black and red, with the shiny finishes of the gold and platinum being quite glitzy and decorative.
You’ll probably have to really love the Bonze stool to buy it, as it’s not cheap. The black and red versions are £578, the gold is £644 and the platinum will set you back £693.
You can find out more about the Bonze stools, or buy one, at Made in Design.

Tub chairs are really comfortable for outdoor use, but this funky chair contains an LED light source, so it glows and provides some light as you sit outside when dusk is falling.
What’s more, it changes colour too – going through a series of seven different colour hues. Controllable via a small pocket sized remote control, the chair has a battery life of five hours and can easily be recharged again.
A matching coffee table, with the same abilities, is also available to complete the look. If you just want one piece, then a coffee table that lights up to tell you where to put your glass in the dark sounds perfect.
Both the glow tub chair and the glow coffee table are available from Dwell.

These alphabet tables are brilliant!
Designed by Andrew Martin, made from metal with a chrome finish, each of the tables is in the shape of a letter of the alphabet. The full range of letters is available so, if you wish (and if you can afford it), you could spell out names or messages with them.
Sadly they are a tad pricey, so we’ll only be buying the F, D and B tables (representing Fresh Design Blog, of course) if we win EuroMillions tonight.
Go and have a look at the range of alphabet tables over at Occa Home.

 Modern gloss bedside table This modern gloss finish bedside table provides the look and style of a gloss finish, but without some of the usual limitations.
The drawers are finished in a lovely burgandy gloss finish, but the surround of the bedside table is in larch. This means that everytime you put something on the top of the bedside table, or touch it, you won’t leave behind fingermarks, as you would with a fully glossy finish. It’s also nice to have a pale colour mixed with a contrasting darker colour.
The table is part of the modular bedroom range at Space2, which also has pieces in black gloss, but you can easily use it as a standalone piece on its own.
The two drawers are finished off with long silver handles and the whole piece measures 51.2cm by 50cm by 44cm in size.
The burgandy bedside table is avilable from Space2 for £109.

Finally, a coffee table that the kids are allowed to draw on!
This quirky coffee table, by Duffy London, has a top made from chalkboard, so you can write on it, draw on it or make notes on it time and time again.

The coffee table measures 100cm by 70cm by 35cm and can easily be wiped clean. It’s sold by Duffy London and is available from Bouf.

If you’re looking for a modern design coffee table, then how about this unusual rectangular tapered design?
The coffee table is quite chunky, but the tapering at the sides helps give it a more slimline look. It’s finished off with rounded edges, so you won’t get a nasty jab if you knock into it.
Finished in a lovely gloss lacquer with great reflective abilities, the table is available in black or teal.
You’ll find it available to buy from Dwell.

If you’re on the hunt for a glass coffee table, then it’s worth checking out the tables on offer at M&S, especially as they’ve got a special 50% off furniture deal starting today (and running until 26th January 2010).
The contemporary glass coffee table, with its Italian design, is perfect for any discerning modern home. Its rounded ends and smooth, flowing lines help it fit effortlessly into a room and it measures 38cm by 120cm by 60cm.
If you prefer a table that’s slightly less cutting edge, then the Viva coffee table, with its brushed metal finish, is a good classic option.
It has a shelf underneath, which would be handy for storing magazines or children’s toys, although with the glass top you can’t get away with hiding too much clutter underneath! This table measures 40cm by 85cm by 50cm.
For more home furniture bargains, including reduced sofas, cabinets, armchairs and beds, have a look at the M&S furniture sale.
