Tips for Creating a Functional and Dreamy Bedside Area
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched a scene in a movie going on in the bedroom and had my eyes drawn to the bedside table, completely ignoring the action taking place. I don’t know who they hire to design the bedside setting, but it’s always stylish and memorable. My own bedside table, used to not even be a table in fact, but a plastic stool where I would place my smartphone before going to bed so that it can sound the alarm in the morning. After I actually decided to make an upgrade to a genuine night stand, my bedroom was instantly beautified.
And usually, there’s not a lot of furniture in a bedroom, which is good for your sleep according to Feng Shui. The few items we decide to include in this room usually serve a practical purpose. But the bedside table is the one bedroom staple that can play a second role as a focal point. Therefore, ugly lamps and impractical clocks have nothing to do on it. Our bedside tables should be interesting but soothing areas, placeholders for things we need close to our grip while we sleep or when we wake up.
