Styling Your Nightstands: The Little Details That Make a Big Impact"

Your nightstands are more than just functional—they’re prime real estate for styling. Small design updates to these pieces can create a cohesive look that enhances the overall vibe of your  bedroom. Here are a few tips for updating your nightstands with minimal effort:

1. Add a Personal Touch: Include a few personal items such as framed photos, a small vase with fresh flowers, or a piece of art that holds meaning for you. This will make the room feel more intimate and unique.  I love adding a little something your kids made in a fun way!

2. Use Lighting Wisely: Table lamps are a great way to add ambiance and create a cozy, warm glow in the evening. You can choose lamps with clean lines or go for a bold statement piece in brass, glass, or ceramic to add visual interest.

3. Declutter and Organize: While it’s tempting to use nightstands for storage, keeping them tidy with a few well-curated accessories will make your bedroom feel more serene. A decorative tray, a book or two, or a stylish bowl for jewelry can keep things functional while looking great.  Don’t go overboard here.  It’s more to clean and maintain. Just a few small touches goes a long way.

4. Go Green: A small potted plant or succulent can bring life and freshness to your nightstands. Choose plants that are low maintenance and thrive in indoor environments, like snake plants or succulents.  (Or if you’re like me- you’ll go with a fake plant because you can’t keep anything alive!)

With just a few tweaks to your nightstand decor, you can create a curated, sophisticated look that complements your refreshed bedding. Next up, we’ll tackle how to incorporate a fireplace feature into your space to take your space to the next level.
