There are so many ways to style a bedside table, and really there are no rules.
Personally I like to keep bedroom decor minimal and clear. Simple can be best when it comes to a bedroom, so you’ll rest easy with this neat and orderly table beside your bed.
However, if you aren’t sure where to begin below is a list of basic items to use that you can’t go wrong with:
– BOOKS
– ARTWORK
– A LAMP
– GREENERY
– SCENTED CANDLES / CANDELHOLDERS
Also check out these pretty styled bedside table examples and tips to get some inspiration.
Use books you have as a pedestal for decor, such as table lamps, scented candles or a vase with greenery.
I love eucalyptus greenery, these beautiful frosted blue green leaves fit any style and look gorgeous everywhere.
Group differently shaped items together. If everything has the same shape it can look boring.

Layer your accessories. Don’t be afraid to let your lamp cover a portion of the artwork.

Use items of varied heights to keep the eye moving. Have something short, something medium, and something tall.
If you havent found yet the sidetables you truly love and can afford, be creative and use books as side tables. To make the look more structured and refined keep all your book covers in a monochromatic palette or turn the spines so you only see the pages.
