5 Ways to Style Your Bedroom With a Messmate Bedside Table

It's summer, so you're probably looking for ways to make your bedroom feel more like a retreat. A Messmate bedside table is a great way to do just that. The classic design will look great in any room and can be styled in many different ways depending on your needs and taste. So whether you need some ideas for decorating your Messmate bedside table or just want to see some cool things people have done with theirs, here are my top 5 tips:


1. Place table on the same side of the bed to make reaching for items easier.

Situate the table on the same side of the bed as your prefered hand. If you're right-handed, place it on your left; if you're left-handed, put it on your right.


This will make reaching for items like glasses and phones easier for when you need to get up in the middle of the night (and also when you don't).


2. Choose a style and colour that matches the rest of your bedroom furniture and decor.

The first thing to do is to choose a style that suits your space. Messmate is a versatile material and can work well in almost any room, but if you want something more specific, choose according to your style and the colour that suits your decor.


An important part of styling up any room is finding furniture pieces that reflect your tastes and complement each other well enough so they don’t clash but still stand out on their own! So don't just buy whatever comes along – instead, get creative with how these new pieces will fit into both themselves (and each other) throughout their lifetime together at home!



3. Use a basket or box to store extra blankets, pillows, or other items you don't need immediately.

If you’re looking for a way to incorporate that messmate bedside table into your bedroom, here are three ideas:

  • Use the shelf underneath as a spot for storing books and magazines.

  • Hang up some artwork or photos in between the shelves on the side of it (or both sides!)—you can even make small holes in the backing of your messmate's bedside table by using an awl or screwdriver and hammer. Before hanging them up for some extra character!

  • Use a basket or box to store extra blankets, pillows, or other items you don't need right away--the perfect place for those spare sheets when company comes over!


4. Add a lamp or other decorative item to make the table more interesting.

You can make your bedside table more interesting by adding a lamp or other decorative items. A vase, clock, mirror, plant and tray are all great choices. If you're looking for something different to add a touch of personality to your space: try a box! It's also an excellent way to hide the clutter that might end up on your table.


5. Keep only essential items on the table - put everything else in storage or another room.

I know what you're thinking, "But what about all those things I don't use every day? How do I store them?"


Good question! You don't have to. Bedside tables are the perfect place to keep all of your rarely-used items, which is why we recommend placing it somewhere accessible but out of sight.


A basket or box is a great way to store extra pillows, blankets and other stuff you don't want to take up precious space on top of the bedside table.


But if it's still too much clutter for your liking, consider putting some of these excess items in another room—a little bit of organisation can go a long way!


Conclusion

With these tips, we hope you’ll be able to create a bedroom that reflects your personality and makes getting ready for bed easy. We hope you enjoy your new messmate bedside table!
