Content
Connoisseurs of Hollywood films have already seen enough of the sweet and romantic breakfast tables. Moreover, such an insignificant attribute in any home will find a place for itself. In addition to the morning meal, he is able to perform a lot of the most unimaginable tasks. It remains only to determine the configuration and style of the future acquisition.
All the virtues
A well-chosen table will allow you to have breakfast right in bed without the risk of spilling coffee or crushing cookies directly on the sheet. A portable transformer will help organize a pleasant surprise for the second half, or simply become a reliable repository for snacks for a person who is lazily resting on the bed on his day off.
A bedside table of a certain configuration will allow not only spending time eating and relaxing, but also quite successfully play the role of a stand for a laptop or tablet. In fact, a stable and solid platform will allow you to implement many ideas.
Another important nuance: a bed table is also part of the bedroom interior. Even if no one uses this attribute for its intended purpose, it still remains in the bedroom. The spectacular appearance and the appropriate stylization of the product make it an important addition to the interior.
Practical benefits and the basis for creativity
This is an indispensable thing for those who care for sick relatives or friends. A person who respects strict bed rest can comfortably eat food right on his bed. It is with the help of the tray that you can cheer up a sick child by placing not only tasty and healthy treats, but also cute trinkets (flowers in a small vase or funny figures).
In addition, the table itself can be used as an element for home crafts. A simple tray with a plastic or wooden worktop can be decorated with your baby. The family will spend time with benefit and pleasure.
Design features
Breakfast tables must be stable and reliable. In the classical sense, such devices are distinguished by an extremely simple structure: a massive or lightweight countertop with sides and legs. In essence, this is enough for a person to be able to eat normally or perform other simple manipulations.
Feet should not be too short. Otherwise, they will simply fetter all movements. However, an unnecessarily high table for eating will be inconvenient.
Fixed legs give the table extra strength. However, if these items can be folded, the process of storing the tray is facilitated. Another convenient device is the legs with adjustable height. If desired, a transformer table can be made higher or lower.
The countertop can be attached to a solid base, which is located on the floor. The wheeled structure conveniently moves around the apartment, and the breakfast table itself, if necessary, is located directly above the bed.
Creativity and practicality in everything
However, many manufacturers do not stop there, equipping their products with other curious devices for working with laptops, tablets, and other gadgets. They can be on wheels, comfortably complemented by a pillow. There are folding, with rich decor and minimalist, very small or a set of overall.
To minimize the risk of spilling any liquid from the tray, it is equipped with reliable sides. In some cases, the tray is also supplemented with handles, for which it is convenient to lift the device.
Handles are often cut in the canvas of the countertop itself. This is a fairly popular technique in wooden products. As an independent element, handles are present in typical transformers, only enhancing their versatility and ability to modify as you like.
Materials for the manufacture of tables
When choosing a breakfast table, it is best to give preference to wooden products. Wood is an environmentally friendly, completely natural material that allows you to create truly luxurious products with a sophisticated classic decor.
Dark wood will decorate the interior in the style of classic, modern or rococo. You can supplement the carved tabletop with gilding if the bedroom is made in the best traditions of the Baroque.
It looks interesting bed and wooden table for breakfast in bed, made in the same style and combined with the same decor.
Recently, ecotrend followers have preferred natural untreated wood. Products made of oak, pine, linden and ash, devoid of excessive decor and additional processing, look original and stylish. However, untreated wood needs to be especially carefully looked after, and breakfast tables should be protected from moisture.
Glass
Glass bed breakfast tray - a selection of true originals. The product is heavy, brittle (if we are not talking about the most durable options). It is also very moody in leaving.
If you choose glass products, it is better to give preference to small and minimalist elements. A small breakfast tray will also be much easier to clean.
It is also worth noting the fact that glass surfaces are the ideal backdrop for creativity. A transparent tabletop can be painted with special paints, and then cover the entire surface with a protective layer of varnish.
Leather
The table with leather trim looks even more original. Leather exudes eclectic charm and skillfully complements the elegant atmosphere in the house. Making a breakfast table with your own hands using high-quality leather linen is easy.
Moreover, such material is very "fertile" in terms of decor - any accessories on leather upholstery will take root well. However, do not forget that the abundance of accessories makes the process of caring for the tray more difficult.
Plastic
Plastic tables on wheels and small trays are the most budget option that absolutely everyone can afford. Even overall products are usually lightweight, they are convenient to move around the house.
High-quality plastic will not spoil the interior, making it cheaper. Rather, on the contrary, correctly selected color and texture will give the product its certain elegance and even strict chic. Plastic transformer will fit well with the style of hi-tech, modern, techno, minimalism.
Plastic also allows you to conduct a variety of creative experiments. For example, decoupage of a breakfast table will allow you to turn an ordinary tabletop into a real work of art. “Updated” products will organically look in a vintage interior or decorate a bedroom in the style of Provence, country, ethno.
Bamboo
All the same fans of eco-style will also appreciate the bamboo table. Such material ideally shades the delicate stylistics of the East, demonstrates the Chinese or Japanese style.
The bamboo tabletop on wheels can be decorated with hieroglyphs, sakura patterns, exotic motifs inherent exclusively in the eastern direction. You can decorate a bamboo canvas yourself, armed with all the necessary tools, and also having previously thought over the idea of the design itself.
Metal
Metal, chrome-plated or powder coated, is a very practical material to use. Trays made of high-quality metals do not scratch or scrape off, do not lose their original color and gloss. Initially, manufacturers offered only laptop stand-tables, and over time they transformed their metal products for other purposes.
Pillow Trays
We should also consider such an accessory as a tray on a pillow. This attribute looks stylish and rather unusual, exuding special comfort and homely warmth.
In fact, this is the same pillow, only complemented by a countertop. There are options that are more reminiscent of a solid elastic pouf. They are not the most reliable and stable, but very pleasant to use.
Some manufacturers offer a “soft” table to always protect with covers. The fabric for this is used only waterproof, characterized by special performance characteristics. Ideally, even if you spill juice or tea on the pillow, its surface is almost not dirty or well washed away.
Alternative ways to use breakfast tables
Any thing in the house should be beneficial, be beautiful, practical and, if possible, also multifunctional. Bed tables are no exception.
In bed, you can not only relax or pamper yourself with a lazy Sunday breakfast, but also perform a lot of other important manipulations. Today it’s not surprising anyone that a person works at a laptop or parses documentation on a sofa or bed, placing all the attributes on a portable table. It is on a miniature table that an e-book or a classic newspaper is ideally placed, along with a cup of coffee and favorite cookies.
Most breakfast tables, which are also suitable for solving work tasks, are equipped with several modules. They can be changed at your discretion, taking into account the specifics of the work that is planned to be performed. Tables can be equipped with additional bowls for storing all kinds of stationery trifles.
Some models will allow you to do needlework or any creative work anywhere with special comfort. If a tray or a mobile table, in the first place, plays the role of a kind of base for creative work, it is not surprising that many begin their creative experiments with the furniture itself, decorating it at its discretion.
Summing up all of the above, we can safely say that the breakfast table is indispensable in every home. This is exactly the accessory that you need to choose with special care and tenderness. You can not adhere to any special rules or recommendations, but choose exactly what you like at the moment. In addition, even the simplest table or countertop can always be decorated with your own hands.
