What to Look For in a Nightstand

When decorating a bedroom, many people choose a bedroom set that comes with a queen bed, a dresser, a mirror and a matching nightstand. If you want to infuse some personality into your room, an easy way to do it is to buy the bedroom items you want individually and choose nightstands that make a definite statement of style. Have fun and let your creativity loose by picking nightstands that serve the purpose you need and show off your good taste.

You can find a wide array of discount nightstands at the lowest prices online and at furniture showrooms in central New Jersey.

Here are some things to look for when you choose a nightstand.

Decide on a Size

It is a good idea to measure your space before you purchase furniture. That is particularly true when you are looking for a nightstand for your bedroom, especially if you intend to place a nightstand on either side of the bed. Your bedroom will, of course, have a bed and it is likely to have a dresser and possibly other pieces of bedroom furniture like an armoire, a chest or a bed bench. Before you pick your new nightstands, measure them to be sure that they will fit well in your bedroom.

Decide on a Style

You might be tempted to think that your nightstands have to match your bedroom set, or at least be in the same style. However, that is not necessarily the case. By adding a striking nightstand in a contrasting style you can ramp up your home décor and make your bedroom furniture more interesting.

For example, choose a Hollywood glam nightstand like the one pictured above to give your bedroom more pizzazz. Or make a definite statement by adding an ornate traditional nightstand to the straight lines of more traditional bedroom pieces. Other choices include coastal for a breezy seaside vibe and farmhouse or rustic for a casual look.

Decide on a Function

You may want your nightstand to serve a purely decorative purpose to hold an elegant vase or other decorative item. However, most people want a nightstand to keep needed items nearby, like eyeglasses, the latest novel or the remote if you have a TV in the bedroom. In that case you will probably want to choose a nightstand with at least one drawer, or possibly two or three.
