When you’re decorating or redecorating a bedroom, the side tables are one of the main pieces of furniture to consider. They’re functional and they help tie the room together. Plus, there are many great ways to style bedside tables, which means you have options. The key here is to find the right pieces for your home decor style among options like coastal bedside tables, Hamptons bedside tables, and more. Today, we will provide a few ideas to help you get started!
How to Style a Coastal Bedside Table
The first thing you need to do is find the right coastal bedside tables for your room. Fortunately, they’re available in a variety of designs, colors, and materials. If you want to create a true coastal ambiance, we recommend choosing materials like wood, seagrass, or rattan for your coastal side table. When it comes to colors, stick to those that remind you of the beach. Including whites, greens, beiges, and blues.
Once you have a good coastal bedside table, you can complete the picture with the right accessories. You should keep the decor simple and uncluttered to help create a relaxed atmosphere. So, less is more! Consider options like a nice lamp, seashells, driftwood sculptures, a stack of books about the ocean or the beach, a framed print or photo of a coastal or beach scene, or a small basket. You can even combine a few of these accessories to make each bedside table unique yet cohesive.
How to Style a Hamptons Style Bedside Table
The Hamptons style is quite similar to the coastal style, but there are a few key differences. The main one is that the Hamptons style is more luxurious than relaxed, but a few of the same rules apply. For example, natural materials like rattan, wood, and wicker are the most common for a Hamptons style bedside table. Additionally, this style is characterized by a light and airy color palette. So greens, whites, blues, and beiges are also the main colors.
When it comes to styling Hamptons bedside tables, the easiest way is to choose beachy or nautical pieces. For example, seashells, starfish, and ships in bottles are good ideas. Of course, lamps are always a good choice and you can choose a white shade or even one with a nautical print. A nice glass vase that resembles sea glass can also be great, as well as other accessories like a nice clock, an accessory dish, and more.
How to Style Solid Timber Bedside Tables
Solid timber bedside tables are very easy to style because they already look quite good. The beauty of the natural material really shines through, so you just have to complement it. When it comes to choosing a good solid timber bedside table, consider the color palette of the room. For example, if the color palette is gray, beige, or white, going with light wood would be best. If the color palette is bolder, dark wood will look great.
To style your solid timber bedside table, we recommend keeping it simple. You can add natural elements like flowers and plants. Candles can also look amazing and they’re available in many different shapes and sizes. You could also add texture to the side tables with elements made of linen, velvet, and more. Using stones as decorations can look great with the wood material. Classic accessories like a lamp, books, framed photos, artwork, a clock, a vase, etc., will also help you complete the picture.
General Bedside Table Styling Tips
Now that we’ve explored a few specific styles, here are some general bedside table styling tips that will work for any style:
- Have a clear theme
Before you start browsing for accessories and pieces to style your bedside tables, you need to have a clear theme in mind. This will influence every choice you make, so make sure it reflects who you are. You also need to make sure the theme matches the overall style of your room. For example, a Hamptons-style bedside table wouldn’t go well with Gothic-style decorations.
- Mix and match
While the goal is to have a cohesive style and decorations, you shouldn’t be afraid to mix and match. Variety is a great way to express your style, so you can mix and match while still creating a consistent look. For example, you can mix and match shapes or textures while following the same style to make things look more interesting.
- Personalize your bedside tables
Personalizing your bedside table decor is a must. Even if you’re decorating a guest room, the style is a reflection of you and the ambiance you want to create in your home. So, make sure you trust your sense of style. If you don’t have many ideas to begin with, looking for inspiration in places like Pinterest can be a great start. Also, find ways to integrate sentimental keepsakes or items you already own into your decor efforts. That’s a great way to personalize your bedside tables while still making them look amazing.
- Keep it functional
Your bedside table is not just about style, it’s also about functionality. So, while you want it to look nice, you also want it to serve you. For example, having a lamp, a clock, a charging station for your phone, or even a basket for your essentials can be great. These items are available in whatever style you need.
- Don’t go overboard
Last but not least, remember not to go overboard with your bedside table decor. If you do, the space will look cluttered and messy. Choose your items carefully and prioritize instead of trying to include all the elements you think you want. Less is more but make each piece count.
