While nightstands are usually not regarded as the most important feature of a bedroom, the interior design spotlight has officially turned its focus to bedside tables. This season, modernized nightstands take the cake at home as a must-have to complete every design enthusiast’s bedroom. If you’re wondering how to accessorize with stylish side tables for 2017, look no further than these chic tips for mastering the trend.

Accessorize with basic black and white: To get the look without betraying a minimalist black and white colour scheme, turn to a polished black wooden nightstand. Contrast the table against patterned black and white cushions, a black bed frame and a black and white printed area rug.

Adorn a slender table with girlish trinkets: If structured, bold furnishings intimidate or bore you, then try decorating with a slim black mini table instead. To accessorize the piece, turn to a black and gold decorative lamp, a matching photo frame, white candlesticks and pale pink roses in a clear glass vase.

Use white and pink for a charming effect: For an instantly ladylike look which suits your inner princess, turn to a white wooden nightstand with shelves and metallic accents. Complete your cozy yet chic space with a dusty pink desk lamp, shaggy white area rug and fluffy neutral bedding.
