How To Style A Nightstand
April 6, 2020STYLING IDEAS
Choosing the perfect nightstand is the first step that starts the visual pairings in a bedroom. You have to choose the correct nightstand(s) that carries visual weight for the space and the scale of your bed. A nightstand is more than just a resting place for your phone or a book.
There’s a simple triangle method to follow that helps you get a better idea of how to blend your accents together without cluttering the space.
Some key styling tools are:
- Scale
- Shape
- Pattern
- Symmetry
In my personal professional opinion, I believe you have to start with the largest accessory and work your way around it, and to me that would be your lamp - this could be a traditional table lamp, a hanging pendant or a wall sconce. After deciding which suits the space best and its position, you can now work around it with all the other accents.
Follow The Style
When you walk into the space, it should overall have the same look and feel between all the pieces you’ve chosen. You have to take one décor style and run with it. There are so many to choose from and if you’re struggling to determine which is best for you, you can check out our other blog post called ‘How To Define Your Décor Style’ or contact us via email to set up an in home consultation where we can further guide you.
Make It Personal
Now is where the fun begins! You can start to layer on accents and personal belongings that fit the look and scale of the nightstand. Also, take into account that ‘his’ and ‘hers’ might differ from each side. Its all about curated pieces that work together and have function on the surface closet to your bedside. Most popular accessories are picture frames, layered books, florals, décor objects, ring holders, aromatics such as candles or a diffuser, and small decorative clocks. Here are some of our favourite photos that depict these styling tips.
