Nightstands and Armoires That Add Style to Your Bedroom

Today’s bedroom sets typically come with a queen size bed, a dresser, a matching mirror and a nightstand. Many people include additional pieces in their bedroom like a second nightstand and a large armoire for function and style.

Having enough storage space in your bedroom can go a long way toward controlling the clutter and keeping things organized. Nightstands and armoires are part of that equation. You can find nightstands and armoires in a wide range of styles and materials to harmonize with the existing furniture in your room.

The History of the Nightstand

Nightstands, also called bedside tables or night tables, have been part of bedroom furniture for centuries. They can be traced to the early 17th century when they were used to hold a candle, a book or a chamber pot. Nightstands became more of a decorative item as years went by, and eventually they evolved to show elegant finishes, carvings and sometimes inlaid wood. Today you can find nightstands in classic styles or with more contemporary designs with minimalistic appeal and innovative features like integrated speakers and wireless charging pads.

The History of the Armoire

The armoire, which is similar to a wardrobe, began in the Middle Ages to store weapons and armor – hence the name. As they became more popular, armoires were made of expensive materials and they began to display decorative elements like intricate carving and curved lines. Today’s armoires are available in a wide range of styles, sizes and materials. They have become a popular accent piece designed to store clothing, linens and other items in the bedroom, and sometimes to hide the TV.

Adding Occasional Pieces to Your Bedroom

Some people play it safe when they add a nightstand or an armoire to their bedroom by purchasing occasional pieces that match the existing furniture in the room. Many bedroom furniture manufacturers offer matching nightstands and armoires as an option for a coordinated look.

If you are adventurous, you might want to explore the option of adding nightstands and armoires in a different, yet harmonizing style to add interest to your bedroom décor. Look for nightstands and armoires in colors that complement the existing color scheme in your bedroom, but that don't exactly match. You can also consider the style of your bedroom and look for a piece with a similar aesthetic and a unique twist, like a different material.
