Cheapo Occasional Tables
Home Decorators Collection is like the Ikea of Middle American Design. So much merch to choose from! The following occasional tables are made from cheap materials and you have to assemble some yourself, but they're like blank canvases. Get out the spray paint and stencils and make 'em your own:
Their Slick Cube for $99 each. I actually like this as-is, but wouldn't it look cool splatter-painted in different colors?
The Yield End Table for 89 bucks. I'd stencil white chevrons on the black top.
Campaign Style Accent Table: this is a ton of style for 99 bucks! I'm sure the brass edge looks hideous so I'd paint that part black to match the rest, and maybe paint the tray top Chinese red.

Is that what you call that style? I love Home Decorators Collection, I've bought several things there recently.
Here's my favorite cheapo occasional table. Flipped through a random (and generally hideous) catalog called Alsto, and saw these end tables for $39. Sadly the end tables are no longer available online (only the not-so-cute coffee table), but I am thrilled with my tables! http://www.alsto.com/product/home+decor/furniture/accent+tables/oval+glass+top+accent+table.do?sortby=shortdesc&asc=true&page=3
