HOW TO

STYLE YOUR NIGHTSTAND

It is not necessary for your nightstand to match your bed. In fact, mixing and matching furniture pieces can create an interesting and unique look in your bedroom.

DOES IT NEED TO MATCH MY BED

Generally, a nightstand should be at the same height or slightly lower than the top of your mattress. This ensures that it is easily accessible and can be used to place items such as a lamp, a book, or a glass of water within easy reach.

HOW TALL SHOULD IT BE

Having a table lamp on each side of your bed is not necessary, but it can be a practical and stylish choice.
