That's a great idea! I'd do it in a heartbeat. It can be hard to find the perfect nightstand anyway---perfect to just search for a dresser instead! Love that bedroom...
I've been thinking about doing this but with a vanity. Add a long-ish/narrow-ish mirror above and a lamp... but I am a little type A in that I crave symmetry and NEEED two nightstands on each side of my bed. My current nightstands are pieces of custom cut wood, 12"x15" (that's all the room I have but it works... I think!) xo
Looks gorgeous but I have the opposite problem - a very narrow area on either side of the bed that barely fits a normal nightstand, let alone a dresser!
Love it! I've always had dressers for night stands. My Mom found two 4-drawer dressers for my childhood room and they keep getting new colors & coats of paint as I grow up and move on. PERFECT for storage!
I like that, a pretty nightstand with more storage and extra tablespace for books and knick knacks!
ReplyDeleteI love the way it is "floating" and the entire room looks so simple, love it!

Gorgeous serene looking room. I would love to ditch our nightstands but hubby is not having it at all:(

ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! We have a small room that must serve as an office and guest room so the desk literally sits right next to the bed. I'm fond of the look.
