Personalize Your Bedroom Furniture: Mirrors, Nightstands and More

In this day and age, some people still have it in their heads that decorating a bedroom begins and ends with your bed and your mattress. While that may do it for the minimalist, not all of us like living with the bare essentials. When you cease looking at your bedroom furniture like one of history’s Stoic philosophers, you’ll realize just how much potential there is to decorate, style, and grow—be it with a headboard, mirror or nightstand. So suspend your minimalism for just a minute, as we explain our love for a few oft-neglected classic pieces of bedroom furniture. 


 Headboard

The Art of Selecting the Best Headboard for Your Bed

By now, minimalist or not, you’ve undoubtedly seen your share of headboards adorning beds on TV or inside department stores. Before you even dream of buying one, your first thought should be: what size bed do I actually sleep on? Laugh if you like, but a not-so-insignificant percentage of the population would be hard-pressed to accurately guess the size of their bed if you asked at random.

With the giggles of the way, ask yourself: do I lean towards a contemporary or old school design of the Old World? When in fact you do go shopping for a headboard on sale, take note of details like moldings and tones.



 Nighstand

The Nightstand to Naturally Complement Your Bedroom


Off your bed, and onto the floor of your bedroom, you’ll find a piece of bedroom furniture that we lovingly call the nightstand. Best kept on the side of your room where you sleep, your nightstand is the ideal spot for a lamp or herbal tea cup—even a bit of old-fashion paperback reading. A fair bulk—if not all—of the nightstands we sell come equipped with extra drawers for storage, too.

Beyond the practical, nightstands are a subtle, and inexpensive way of using the space inside of your room, without wasting it.



 Bedroom mirror with dresser

Bedroom Mirrors to Reflect and Augment Your Aesthetics


If you happen to be living in a bedroom that’s bereft of windows, a bedroom mirror could be your favorite piece of furniture soon. Often paired with a dresser, this reflective piece of decor gives a much-appreciated peak at your appearance before you sleep, and as you’re readying yourself in the morning.

Give yourself a visual treat by positioning a painting or piece of artwork directly across from your bedroom mirror.
